I don't see a hood yet, what are your plans? Is this option still on the table?

Well, the kids are back in school, so it’s garage time :D
Made a small amount of progress tonight by installing the correct LS engine mounts from PB. I had previously been trying to use the smallblock mounts with adapter plates, which was causing all sorts of issues, most immediately, poor header fitment. The LS specific mounts move the engine forward slightly, but most importantly are about an inch taller than the SBC version. The long tubes from Speed Engineering now fit like they were made for it: the drivers side front primary tucks in nice and tight to the block for steering shaft clearance, the passenger front primaries now clear the upper coilover mount, and the collectors tuck up in the frame quite nicely :metal: |

Looking good Chris!

Re: How to: Ruin a perfectly good C10
Those fit beautifully! That's gotta feel good.
|
Re: How to: Ruin a perfectly good C10
That's looking sweet! I hope you complete this before you move again. I want to see (and hear) it in person.

Re: How to: Ruin a perfectly good C10
Looks good, they really seem like a nice piece the little bit Ive messed with them.

Re: How to: Ruin a perfectly good C10
Nice!!!! Looks great Chris!!! I ran a set of Chevelle headers on my '82 C10 with a 350 and they tucked up nice like that too....only difficulty was the factory trans crossmember....just wish mine had the LS power like yours...maybe for Raymond ;)

Otherwise, I’ve been spending my free time tinkering with the Blazer, fixing some nagging issues :chevy: |
Re: How to: Ruin a perfectly good C10
I am new to this site, about 20 minutes old. I have a 70 C10 that I am trying to fix up myself. I was wondering if you could recommend where to buy parts. I know of LMC, Summitt and Classic Industries. I am wanting to purchase a new tailgate, front grill and the break lights and the fuel lines that go from the tank to the front

I'm running a Muncie too Save the Manuals |
Re: How to: Ruin a perfectly good C10
Which Muncie is that?
I would love to go back to a stick, but with my wife's neck problems she wouldn't be able to drive me if I overly indulge in the barley pop's after we cruise somewhere. Not to mention, I would have a hard time giving up my overdrive and the aftermarket 5 and 6 speeds that would handle the torque are quite pricey. |

Also, since I’ve settled on a manual, I went ahead and ordered a Brian Tooley stage 3 cam, ya know, because I no longer have to worry about buying a stall converter, and +60 hp with a choppy idle is old school cool, too :cool: |
