purchased this c10 in aug 2012 and have been focusing on the drivetrain and getting that going... here are some pics of the past year and change. when I got the truck, it had a 350 in it, but wanted to do an LS swap on it. It is now running and driving. The LS2 has a cam, roller rockers, springs, rods.

kind of a crap photo, but upgraded to a CPP 500 series steering box. the one that was in the truck leaked and had horrible response. when going 60 mph the truck was move left and right at its free will. The new box is a lot tighter and way more responsive than the old crapper that was in it.

been updating the suspension on the old girl with a front ride tech kit with coil overs. Still working out the kinks, but here it sits! if anyone has installed this kit and can give any pointers, they would be greatly appreciated. having issues with the lower control arms bottoming out on the ground on bumps.
