70 c10 project
This is a 58k pickup with some serious rocker rust. it does have a 4 bolt main high compression 70 small journal 350 though. so I had the motor pulled and a high performance rebuild done on it. it currently has the biggest cam avalible that is still semi-streetable and a noisy gear drive. I had the rockers/floor braces/partial floors/cab corners repaired. I have a 650 road demon, 700-R4, and blacked out grill surround/grill/headlights, front disk conversion, brake booster, lowering springs, and cool billet aluminum dash and glove box on it. it's been striped by Ripley's Old Skool of Olatha, KS. I have an under bed gas tank and a behind the tail light fill just waiting to go on.

Re: 70 c10 project
Nice work. It's amazing how all of these trucks rust in exactly the same areas!

Re: 70 c10 project
So I had some things done to the old girl: I had a billet aluminum dash and giove box door done. I had a beefed up 700R4 in with a deep pan, 4.5/5” drop, 5 lug conversion, disk brakes in the front, converted to power brakes, and the 18” Riddlers.

Re: 70 c10 project
Then I had a 71-72 grill shell powder coated. Bought a black billet 72 grill, and moved this turn signals behind the grill. Put LED turn signals on the core support.

Re: 70 c10 project
Looking good! Are you switching over to an electric fuel pump as well for the TPI setup?

Re: 70 c10 project
Yep, just didn't see you mention it and saw that it was just a few months ago that you all put the Edelbrock pump in, so was curious

Interesting. I've never seen one of these taken apart. Thanks for sharing.

Re: 70 c10 project
Do you have a plate for the EGR blockoff, or going to block it another way?

Re: 70 c10 project
Are you referring to the port in the middle of the manifold? I was gonna have Michael make a block off plate.
