Hi

I am new to this site but I have been reading it for quite some time. Last fall I bought a 1948 GMC FC454. Don't know nothing about it.

It is sitting upnorth on my property and this Spring I plan a major reconstruction effort.

What is with the lug nuts on the dualies?? I thought it was always lefty-loosee rightee-tightee!

Also, if I re-plumb my brakes and use a dual master cylinder do I have to use my hydra-vac system? I am not gonna be hauling a lot of weight.

And....where do I get good shop manuals?
