That Chevrolet add took me back a number of years. Our neighbors were most likely the age I am right now, boy they were so much older than me though, They had 1958 2 door that was flesh color, I called it pink! That was over 50 years they bought a new car in the mid 70's?. I don't have a clue what it was. . But boy I can see that 58 with that big V on the hood and Continental kit and the big crome bumpers, and fender skirts, and dual exhaust. Thanks for sharing your videos!
Amen!!! I owned an Auto Parts store for several years and had books to look up all the parts from tractors to any vehicle. Never had wrong parts and was always informed on Cam sizes, valve sizes, journal sizes, etc. Things you just don't get in a computer. Like clearances, lol it just came on!!
There is no replacement for displacement. Nothing sounds like a large engine. My favorite is the 396 but now the 702 is a bucket list engine, I just have to build a home for it! Thanks for your video!
I absolutely agree about the shop manuals, they have tons of info and my favorite part, the illustrations! Love to see the flames come out the exhaust of that V-12. It'll be interesting to see what kind of exhaust system you decide on for the build. And those 58 Chevy's are pretty cool!
Great video, love that V12, one of the better rat rod choices! I drove an old 58 Impala my friend had, 348, vacuum operated deuces, and 3 speed on the column. Man what a fun car to have today, but ain't they all!...
I still have a couple of those "analog" books myself. They come in handy if the all-knowing Interwebs aren't available. Linda and I send our best, and wish you a Merry Christmas, and a happy and prosperous New Year.
I didn't have this one, but I had both the "MOTOR" Diesel Repair Manual & the "MOTOR" Truck Service & Repair Manual. Worked on a lot of old GMC duese & a 1/2's. Parker Ranch grabbed a bunch from the Marines. I never had the opportumity to see 1 of those 702 V12's. But I got to do a lotta old repair's with my old "MOTOR" Repair Manual's.
Wayland....i just love your videos... That 702 GMC....sure brings back memories.... We use to rebuild them at work....and the V6 GMCs also....alot of those 2 engines were interchangeable....pistons..Rods...Cylinder heads....Wondering what your going to put it in...now that you have the bellhousing and clutch all sorted out...? We had them in the AUTOCAR wreckers... The nose of that Cab stuck Way out infront of the front axle....Its a great Motor for a low and long Rat Rod....but that front end needs to be pretty Robust to support that weight....But ive seen a few of your videos...You have a good mind for engineering....i know youll get it Right....👍keep the videos coming...😁🇺🇸
I had a late 60s GMC with the 351 V6, 4 speed w granny gear, and a 4x4 conversion. That thing would pull a house. I can only imagine having twice that torque.......
The books we need back are catalog's. I've learned alot from reading catalog's. Company's don't want to provide them anymore. I find it easier to find the information in them than searching page after page of the internet. Keep Rocking it out!!!
That ad for the 58' Chevy reminded me of our old station wagon we had. Sadly, that was one tired puppy. It was a, check the gas and fill the oil, type engine. That old six had a LOT of miles on it. You could fog skeeters with that thing if you stomped on it.
I have a small collection of of old technical manuals for cars, trucks that was on the road before I was born. I even have books on Sherman tank erection manuals of Cessna, BOEING B 17 and 747. And engine manuals on the wright cyclone 1820 R and Wright cyclone 3350. I enjoy going through them, and appreciate the design of them. Some of those old books have hand written notes on trouble shooting. I received many of them through family.
I found the Ford shop manual for my tractor and printed it double sided. Took about 2 reams of paper to print it. Always handy to have the service manuals handy.
sterling Wilkey i agree, only 260 hp rating ,but it would have been down low,and monsterous amount of Torgue,I'd to have one in an old 2 ton ,like you said ,i wonder if gm ever produced some performance parts for these engines.?
yeah book markers! remember the little crocheted crosses that were the bible book markers? :) imagine the millions of kids now a days that dont know what a book marker is! haha

I worked on a Chinese made tractor a couple years ago that the engine adapter/bellhousing held the rear main seal. Bad part was, it DIDN'T have dowel pins, and the bolt holes were a rattle fit. So, the bolts would vibrate, the bellhousing would shift, just a few thousandths of an inch, and eat the rear main every time...
We'll make a gm big block v6 v12 pro outta you yet there Ken! lol! I got's a few of them things ya call books stashed away to......knowledge I got from reading the originals. That v12 sure is sweet!

Talking about it running off one back. When I worked in the gas patch here in Arkansas. Some of the small natural gas compressors were made from V8 Ford engines they ran off one side and pumped natural gas off the other. Distributor cap had a place for 4 plug wires going to it. I never trusted em.

Bill Bunten yes,i would be distrustful also, international scouts used to have a 4 cyl with an 8 cyl. distributor, every other one was blocked off .
plugs wires were on every other point one the distributor cap,ive never been to fond of the idea.
Smith made air compressors like that. Ran bitchin and put out tons of air
Would be really neat to have a 702 with twin 6-71's on it, just low boost more for fun than performance of course :)

Yeah, I seen that video, had me puckered just a little! 😊
The ones we run set on the ground and had a clutch then the right angle gear box in the column, then a LONG driveshaft up to the prop.
If someone was to engage the clutch a little too quickly, the gearbox had to be replaced! Those big 12s had so much torque they could swing a pretty good size prop at 1800 rpm!
This old arky sho is enjoying your videos! 😊
