New to the board...
New to the site just introducing myself.
Work for a shop that build presses for the automotive industy. Diesels and old chevy trucks is where its at for me. I recently acquired a 72 C10 custom traded a Jetta for it off OG owner 69,000 OG miles bought from Taylor Chevy in Lancaster, OH 2/25/72 came with full service records since new 307 3 on the tree. The only parts changed since left the lot in 72 is tires, front brakes, clutch, and steering gear box. Everything else is as left factory Looking foward to a full tear down and refresh ground up starting these winter. Fairly solid for a truck in the "rust belt" typical rockers cab corners etc... Thanks again for letting me me be a part of the group. Looking foward to gaining lots of knowledge. look fowrad to lots of question post in the future, My first older C10. I've always dealt with older VWs and Diesel VWs till now. -Jacob- http://a4.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphot..._2560981_n.jpg |

You may want to read up on 307s a little. The bore-to-stroke ratio is less than optimal (283 bore with a 327 stroke). They respond to speed parts, but not as well as other small blocks. I've had a couple and always ended up replacing them with a 327 or 350. Anyway - it depends on your situation (money/time and whatnot). :) |
