New to me rig

A few months ago I sold my old '74 Mr. Green Jeans project (again) and picked up this 1981 GMC Sierra the other day. It's a 454 with an NV4500 swap. The AC blows cold, and only has 80k on the clock. Thinking I'll static drop it and run some of the 8 lug 20x11 and 20x8 or 9 Delrays. The 454 is rebuilt, and isn't running quite right, due to some things the previous owner didn't install quite right (he rigged an auto choke into a manual choke, and his rigging contacted the air cleaner housing preventing the secondaries from opening for one)... Exhaust leak from the headers... but that 454 is quiet and nice and tight internally. One cylinder is down due to a burned plug wire... Little nit picky stuff LOL!
