I can't believe it's been 8 years since I was last on this forum. At that time, I documented the build of my 1958 Apache pickup. Thought I would give everyone an update although I don't know if anyone will remember it. As a reminder it has a .040 over 261, custom 2 deuce EFI system, vintage McCulloch supercharger, close ratio 3 speed transmission, and a gear venders overdrive. I am happy to report that the truck is still running very well with hardly any issues, and I have put approx. 5000 miles on it. It also survived a shop fire during this time. Thanks for your time, Diceman

diceman1950 - Did you register under a new member name??? I recall your truck from back then and seems you used to post under “Diceman”.
Isn’t this you posting on your truck in the HiPo Shop???

So, you're asking 'Diceman' why he has dice in his fuel filter? I struggle to think of a single, more self-answering question. I have no idea who Diceman is, but with dice in his fuel filter, he is already cool by me.
