Sounds like a plan on the arms. Why not just use Porterbuilts Foward Arms?
The engine is going to look outstanding with those webers! Posted via Mobile Device |

I'm planning on coating the carbs with PPG DX series aluminum conditioner to get this look. The stacks will be satin black and manifold will be Alpine Green like factory '66 327s, and I'll use either zinc plated steel lines or regular rubber fuel hose for more of a factory look. |

Got the F-Body pan and cleaned it up. Also pulled out the front suspension parts to take baseline measurments from the A-arms.

oh wow that intake is killer!! I was looking at doing a factory type three duece setup from a vette... but this is WAYYYY cooler. When this is done park beside mine as much as you can.... a background shot will be the only chance I'll have in the mags with this thing! HA!

Re: Project Goldilocks, '66 C10 SWB BBW Build
Hahaha whatever, by time I get this thing finished 60-66's will be out of style and you'll already have all the mag coverage tied up!

I sold the front suspension and brake parts so I weighed it all while I had it pulled out. My digital scales have a 35 pound weight limit so I had to measure the heavy stuff with bathroom scales. It will be interesting (to me atleast) to see how much weight I can save with the rack and pinion kit, tubular arms, and CPP modular spindles.
Total weight- 279 pounds, 4.1 oz. |

"MalibuKasey and I have been planning out building our own tubular A-arms that fix the lack of needed castor and camber adjustment that stock arms have and also move the wheel forward to center the wheel in the fenderwell while we're at it. I'm also going to look into taller C20 upper ball joints that will increase camber gain through the suspension travel, and possibly drop the upper A-arm cross bar mount for even more camber gain if its needed."
Don't tell me you 86'd this part of the project and decided to buy rather than redesign. I was curious on what you came up with cause your always top notch.:metal: I recently made a upper ball joint/a-arm mod and not sure if it will help or hinder my build. |

Did a little parts shopping. Picked up an original offset stud driver side mirror that will replace the original (and hideous!) RV jr mirrors. Still need a passenger side arm and mirror head. Also scored a deal on a pair of NOS Custom sail plates.

Re: Project Goldilocks, '66 C10 SWB BBW Build
I love your builds. I went back the other day to your dodge build to get a refresher on blocking and what seam sealers you use. Your documentation on here is priceless.

Really neat headlights from the 60's/70's. They have a separate bulb and reflector for low/high beams so each reflector and lens section is suited for the beam pattern. http://i557.photobucket.com/albums/s...t/13c75831.jpg http://i557.photobucket.com/albums/s...t/ea0ff0f2.jpg Quote:
