Lemield: Ok sounds great buddy, I will hopefully get there early and be up towards the front, but we'll see how it goes. You can PM for my cell # if you want.

Zoomin: Thank you, I hate that method too, luckily for me I was swapping out all the parts anyway. I wanted to touch up the block and heads, but decided against it for that very reason.

Big Orange: Thank you, I made the PCV and brake booster line with spare 3/8" aluminum line, not very hard.... but makes a nice appearence difference. The K&N fuel filter I have had laying around for a long time, a buddy gave it to me years ago and I had never used it. I am unaware if K&N still offers it or if you can find them through another supplier. I had the ole' Torker II on 72' previously (pre-LT1 swap) and had not used it for years, I finally decided to ditch the stock intake and adapter setup that the PO had done.

I cannot honestly give you any engine specs, the drivetrain was done 2 owners again and I have no clue what it even is. I am told that it has an "RV" cam and obviously the Crane roller rockers, but I dont have any other details. The heads appear to be standard issue SBC to me, but the truck does run very well for what it is. I would bet that with a good carb tune and proper timing it would run right with my LT1 powered C10.

To all: I appreciate all the compliments, it makes everything worth it when you get positive responses from your peers!
