I'm using Dupont paint and Clear. Thanks man. Here is a few pics of the hood and fenders taking with a better camera. In my opinion the pics don't do it justice.

Thanks for all the great comments guys! I picked this color out about 9 years ago when I was 14 lol! Its been a long time coming and to finally see it painted, Well................its just a feeling I cant describe. Thanks Dad!

Re: 1967 C-10 LS POWERED Build
 

Really nice truck. The color looks awesome, really close to mine.

Re: 1967 C-10 LS POWERED Build
 

Thanks. Thats a good looking truck! Have you got to run it at the track yet?

Re: 1967 C-10 LS POWERED Build
 

Not yet I am working in Kuwait so not much time to play right now. Hope to be home in the summer so I can run it.

Re: 1967 C-10 LS POWERED Build
 

Sounds good! Tell me a little bit about your setup?

Re: 1967 C-10 LS POWERED Build
 

I bought it like it is now. It has been back halved with ladder bars and coil overs, 9" with 456 gears and spool. It has a TCI 400T with trans brake. I hope to have time to drop a 496 in when i am home this month, if not will in the summer. I am ready to get to work on it.

Re: 1967 C-10 LS POWERED Build
 

are you using a spacer on front? if so how much? if not how are you getting the wheel that far out? thanks

Re: 1967 C-10 LS POWERED Build
 

If your refering to me all I have up front is cpp 2 1/2 in drop spindles, factory style rotors a d a 1/4 inch spacer between the rotor and front wheel.

Re: 1967 C-10 LS POWERED Build
 

are they modular 2 1/2" drops or oe drop spindles?

Re: 1967 C-10 LS POWERED Build
 

Actually they are Mcgaughys 2 1/2 inch drop spindles. I ordered them from Summit Racing.

Re: 1967 C-10 LS POWERED Build
 

sweet. ive got cpp oem 2 1/2" drop spindles, i hear they push the wheel out, wondering if i should switch for some modulars. your trucks awesome man i really love that blue! wish i had that kinda shop too, my dbl garage is pretty tight with an 80's camaro tucked in the corner haha.

Re: 1967 C-10 LS POWERED Build
 

Truck is,coming out beautiful that's the exact same color I had painted my brothers 69 and a couple months later he left a bottle of raid i think and lifted up the paint went down hill from there n now I bought it off of him going to started on it today going to paint it torch red and install my old 5.3 off my 06 Chevy with heads and cam.

That motor u have makes great power just installed one in my 06 crew cab with 229/236 tsp cam and ported my ls3 heads my truck went 13.1 on 22' intro wheels and full weight and we still haven't even y band it yet still messing with the tune should go an easy 12.5-12.4 moreless on slicks and everything working right so urs should fly with that ly6.

Re: 1967 C-10 LS POWERED Build
 

That's a pretty quick time for a crew cab and 22's. My 99 gmc truck is a single cab 6.0L cutting 1.80 to 2.0 60ft's with ET streets. Consistently runs 13.0 and my personal best of a 12.89 at 105 with a 1.8 60ft. On a cool summer night.

Re: 1967 C-10 LS POWERED Build
 

Yeah thanks, wat times u going after with ur setup did u swap to hollow stem valves on ur heads they've told me that's a great way to help out these heads. I still need more converter and more gear to get its full potential my 5.3 went 13.7 in my crew cab its just for now till I can build a 6.0 for it.

Keep us updated with ur truck coming out nice can't wait to see it done

Re: 1967 C-10 LS POWERED Build
 

No. Just stock motor with cam and springs. Not really. Going after any specific time. I'm just building what I want and seeing what it'll do, then I'll just go from there. To many variables in drag racing you can throw numbers at setups all day long.

Re: 1967 C-10 LS POWERED Build
 

LSPWRD67CHEVY,

Do you have a cam picked out yet?
What fuel is in your area (91, 93)?
Any idea what the truck is going to weigh?
Also, what are you going to be running for a converter?
What about gear and tire?

I use performance trends to model engines with great success. I am sure I could help you with a custom cam for your set up.

Re: 1967 C-10 LS POWERED Build
 

Yes, I already have a custom grind cam installed for what I plan on doing with the truck for the time and money I have at the moment. You actually commented on it in the first page of this thread. I plan on running just 91 with no ethanol. Im hoping the truck will weigh around 3500 or so with me in it. Im planning on going with atleast a 3500 stall. as of now it has 3.73 gears and a 29 in tall slick.

Re: 1967 C-10 LS POWERED Build
 

Got the headers fitted and installed today here's a few pics.
