Hello all,
I finally joined the forums after being the beneficiary of great wisdom for many years.
I have a '56 Truck motor coupled to a '69 C10 Saginaw, topped with a Carter 2101 YF. My vehicle is a '55 Sedan. I'm a member over at Trifive, however there is little love for the inline 6,3 Speed,4 door crowd. I tend to wind up here when I need information, so here I am.
Keep up the good work,
Neptune

Greetings Neptune. Welcome to the 'bolt. Please keep in mind that this is a truck site, not a car site. When your posts refer to your car, please post those in the Greasy Spoon (or they will probably get moved there anyway).

Truck specific questions (such as about your Engine) are welcome in the particular forums... just don't mention that you have it in a car.


Another quality post.

Welcome. What Rusty said. I’m a truck snob and aren’t afraid to admit it!

BTW, we will let the “Car Guys” hang out with us when we do our GabFests. You’re on my list to invite for next time.

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.
I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you smile

Thanks all.
As for Car specific questions, I'll leave those over at Trifive. I'm learned alot about my truck engine et all here at Stovebolt. Like say, my drivetrain is truck derived.
I'm kinda a man without a county. The Trifive crowd likes the V8, and I don't have a truck.
Thanks again.

Well, you know what they say. Of the 125,283 Tri-year V8 Bel Aires, there are only 454,216 left in existence.
