1972 C10 Build
 

I just purchased my first C10 to restore. The truck is in good shape and has had a previous restoration that did not turn out very good.

The truck is currently a 350 SBC with a 3 speed on the tree and stock suspension and interior.

I am planing to do a frame off restoration. I ordered the Hotchkis complete suspension kit last week and plan to start taking the truck apart in the next week or two.

Anyone have any pointers on a LS3 or LS6 swap into the C10? I am trying to decide what powertrain to go with. I want to keep an automatic trans.

Does anyone know how wide the rearend is hub face to hub face in the 72 C10?

I am planing to put a grand national type 9" in mine but forgot to measure the width last night.
