Re: HELP! I'm having second thoughts on current set up.

CST10, I look at these trucks as packages that go hand in hand

6cylinder, 3oot, drum brakes ,smaller tires,

Ls, aod, disc brakes, larger tires.

If you beef up the 6 cyl, then the trans will be weak. Then you go faster and the brakes need improvement, Then you go faster in the turns and you want better handling.

Every time i drive my 68 c10 swb ls, aod, disc brakes, dual antisway bars, larger tires, i smile and don't desire to go back. The old school stock is the underlying basis of this forum in my mind and respect it as i had a truck like yours in high school. Thought it was great for what it was, as it was, but i love to modify things, fabricate things, so my current 68 satisfies this urge! Love your truck and the ball is in your court.
