Wow, it has been forever since I have been on this site... good to hear you got this on the road Mike.

clean the carb... it needs to be soaked and cleaned properly... it probably has varnish built up inside it... the float needle is probably stuck in addition to the jet being clogged...

I have several of the larger welding blankets from HF... I use the **** out of them. Cheap and work good. I also have a couple of their larger canvas drop clothes that I use to cover stuff in the garage. As for other tools from HF, I don't buy many cause they have quite a bit of junk...

body mounts = hockey pucks with a 1/2 inch hole drilled through them, they are cheap and make one hell of a body mount you can use 1x1 to frame out the floor then lay flat 18 guage on top of it... use 1/4 inch plate for the body mount, welded to 1x1... as far as noise goes, sound deadener...

my little cart... holds 2 bottles, my 110 Hobart, my 220 Lincoln, my plasma, and a bunch of accessories

Mike, I have been over here for a while, I just don't make a whole lot of posts... also, on the hydroboosters, there are two types made for the Chevys... one has an agle mounting plate and the other has a flat plate, you want the latter so that the booster and master mount at a 90 degree angle...

used them on both :-)

also, an inline adjustable proportioning from Wilwood works great for adjusting the rear brakes... I've done this on dozens of builds...

Mike, I run a hydrobooster in that little bodied truck you saw... they are wonderful... just as an fyi, 90-96 astro vans have the hydrobooster with the flat plate mount for the firewall... and the master cylinder off those works great for juice brakes. Or as an alternative, 98+ s-10 master...

most s10 rears are geared somewhere around 342 to 373... check the casing and run the numbers

Try setting that gas flow down to 15-17 cfm at the regulator. I have a Lincoln 180, 220 volt setup here at the house, and run it right at 16 cfm for 1/4 inch work. Buzzes along like butter. .030 wire too. also, as stated, make sure you have the right tip for the wire size, that can screw you...

I like that... I've been toying with the idea of building a new cart to house 2 bottles and 2 welders (110 & 220). The hanging area for clamps is exactly what I need, they are everywhere right now

IL. side, near Scott Air Force Base... drop me a pm

thanks bro... I'll check them out.

Damn, just what I need when I build my bed, I'm not familiar with MACS, can you provide a link.

I've never had a flap disk break like that. however, cut off wheels are also very prone to explode. I've had one come apart on me and the only thing that saved my face was the face shield. Of course, I dropped the angle grinder one time onto my foot and low and behold it just barely missed...

flux core wire burns way hotter and from experience, it is easier to warp the metal. I'd definitely run gas, low amps and tack tack tack
