Re: 1969 Chevy Stepside Restoration/Build up
Just want to say that's a heck of a truck and great looking. Yes as it has been commented at one time projects are more work than you can imagine. But in the end it pays off.

Re: 1969 Chevy Stepside Restoration/Build up
Awesome truck you have there! Just got through the whole thread. You have came a long way. Maybe I missed it somewhere but are you running 2 gas tanks?

Re: 1969 Chevy Stepside Restoration/Build up
Update:
Just ordered some stuff for the 5.3L. Got a Cam, Springs, and Pushrods. The cam is from Comp Cams and its their LSR series. The specs are 215/223 .604/.610 112LSA it has a power band from 1300-6500 rpm so they told me I can get by with the stock converter. I also got Comp's 918 spring good for .625 lift. I found some 7.400" chrome-moly hardened pushrods for a good deal to so I got those. Next I'll get the computer tuned for the changes along with some other stuff! Can't wait to hear it once its installed, I'll post pic of the install and video once it runs.

Re: 1969 Chevy Stepside Restoration/Build up
Just scored a perfect original rust free fender for the Passenger side of the truck. The one thats on there is a repo and it doesn't fit at all since the stamping is so bad. I'm also going to redo my body work on the passenger side door and repaint it when I put on the original fender.
