  • Did the Square Body C20 Service Truck Survive Hot Rod Power Tour 2023? Atlanta, Columbia, Rockingham, Charlotte, and Bristol were all part of the route. Lots of miles and new friends, but fortunately, only a few minor issues. Loose header bolts and a blown high pressure power steering line were the only real issues. The truck road and drove great, and got a solid 11-12 MPG. Can't wait to do it again!

    Cool vids. Idk if anyone has mentioned it but manifold gaskets is the secret to never having a header leak header bolts loosening. There's 3 things I do if using headers. I hit them with a flat file for a good seal, use manifold gaskets and 3rd is optional because I will cut the metal flange so it makes for 3 separate clamped areas. The front header tube, the two middle tubes and the last header tube to the head. I've never had a header leak since I started doing this sequence for probably 20 years now.

      I appreciate the support. Power Tour was a blast. Don’t know if the schedule will work out for me this year or not. 👍

      It’s a Stahl body. I need that Knapheide sponsorship. I’m trying to go fast and an Aluminum box would be much lighter 😎

    I’m gonna be doing power tour next year maybe, what was your average cost or rounded up to? So I can have a reference to save up to

    • @freedomworx
      @freedomworx  Před 7 měsíci

      Lots of variables involved. Like the price of fuel, MPGs, and hotel costs depending on the locations. But I’d say $2k is a decent ballpark figure.

      20x9 with 4.5” BS. 275/40R20. But the rear actually needed another 3/4” of BS to fit the service bed. So I put a 245 on the rear.

    Add a fuel return line and your vapor lock should go away... at least that is what I've been told.

    • @freedomworx
      @freedomworx  Před 4 měsíci +1

      I think I'll just delete the SBC and install this 12V Cummins I have...expensive vapor lock solution 😂
