5 bolt vrs. 6 bolt homework DONE !

[albertarose]

I have a Short box step big block truck (69) it has the origional power drum 6 bolt set up ..I thought about going 6 bolt disc but after looking for wheels with normal offset I realized why people like 5 bolt better ..you have a limitless selection of wheel possibilitys ! during this wheel hunt I found a guy a few hours away from with a 72 parts truck that is not too picked over (yet)..just the engine and front fenders ..his price seems fair and with a little luck I will be able to sell whats left over.. ..I havnt seen it yet but I am going there prepared to drag it home next wk end. Although my shorty is a real CST 396 truck ..its not numbers matching anyway and I think its a fair trade to be running 5 bolt disc ..any tips or advice on my plan ? it should be fairly straight forward.. KEEP ON TRUCKIN!
