Anyone drag a 72 C20?? Setup help
I have a 72 C20 project truck. It is a solid, rust free one owner truck. I yanked the stock 350, and had a 454 bored .30 over, 280 comp cam with valve work done for clearance etc... on the oval port 781 heads. I'm running a rebuilt 850 double pumper, with a Performer intake. I have large tube headers with 3" duals running through flowmaster 40's. It has the Granny tranny in for another week or too, and I am installing a th400 with a 2800-3200 stall. I have the stock Dana rearend with 4:11's. It is the leafer, not coil spring rear, however I do have a full coil spring 3/4 ton chasis as well, but I think the leaf will be better with a Caltracks system installed. (traction bars). The front is lower already with the BBC, but I need to install better springs up front and shocks. I want to put the ranchero 9000 adjustables in the back. I removed a bunch of load springs, and am in the process of notching the bed, and flipping the axle to lower the rear more. There....Let me know what else would be a good idea for making this a good bracket racer! but yet want it streetable too. Thanks guys!
