Also while they had it they pulled the oil pan and pulled out the broken off tip of my dipstick (DOH!) and I also had them replace the single plane intake with a new Crosswind dual plane intake so the little Edelbrock won't be so unhappy). They also adjusted the springs a bit in the HEI to make it a little less radical and fixed a small oil drip. My total bill was $1400 and that included the new intake, the new gears, the posi, everything.

I'm also running 275/60-15 tires but on 15x10 wheels though.
I wasn't aware you could run 15x10 wheels with 275/60/15 tires. I think I might like that look a little better. I love the way your truck sets. You definitely got a really good package deal.
