New to board from east tx
I will be hanging out on this board now, hope nobody minds.
I am slowing my speed habit now and getting back to basics where it was fun, like driving a car you built to town and to shows, sometimes going to the track with it. I have been building high horsepower blowthru cars and trucks for the last 6-7 years and the fun was gone with owning one of these. My last truck was a 88 S10 with a 406 and F2 procharger, has been as fast as 5.30's at 132 in the 1/8 with stock suspension. It was possibly the fastest stock suspension s10 in texas. Anyway I used to have a 68 stepside in highschool, and now I am building a 68 fleetside, with a 6.0L. I basically copied the motor out of carcraft. I have some pics (I just started) if I can figure out how to load them to the board, I am not much of a computer guy. |
