Hi all,

I'm building a 37 Pickup and thought I'd share some photos. The build includes, 351 Cleveland, Eaton M121, twin OHG LPG mixers, 75mm TB, BTR 4 speed OD electronic auto, Davis Craig electric water pump, MJLJ, 60mm section and 60mm top chop. At present it's in the mock up stage but here goes with some shots, I'll add others as they come along.

If anyone is particularly interested in some part of the build, I can put up some more shots of that part and comments.

The dizzy was chopped of with about 15mm of shaft left protruding. A brass washer, steel ring and a roll pin were fitted to the shaft. The function of these is only to stop the dizzy falling to bits when you remove it. The black plastic cap is being replaced with an alloy cap next week.

I want to use the mega jolt so I can get rid of the distributer and make room for a blower. I have a built 460 and an Eaton blower. So far you are the only guy I have seen trying to do the same thing I am lol. I have heard that you should not run fuel through an Eaton blower. That it is designed for air only. I could not see from your pics what you are using for fuel delivery. I was going to make two adapter plates one to fit the blower to my intake and the other to fit the carb on top of the blower. I can see the plate you are running on yours. Did you make it or did you buy it? When you made the oil pump drive out of an old distributer do you come across any road blocks? Or did you just cut the top of the distributor off and make it look pretty? Where did you get your crank gear from? Is there one out there for a stock motor that bolted right up to your Cleveland?

How is your rod running? Did everything work out good? I would like to see as many pics as you are willing to send me lol. For the adapter plates, crank gear, oil drive… anything that will give me ideas on how I am going to make mine. I know the Cleveland is not the same beast is a 460 but it is real close 
