Re: My 1st Project: 1972 Chevy C10
Its been awhile and finally was able to do some more work on the truck.
Also did some research and I am running a 91 5.7L V8 from a C1500. It has the "captain bars" cylinder heads and I am currently contemplating replacing them. Needs body work but thats ok Im not trying to make a show truck just a daily driver that might turn some heads. Eventually it will have new... Paint - Red Carpet - Red Seat Cover - Red/White Engine bay - nice and pretty New Rims - Smoothies 16x6s New Tires - 205/55/16 whitewalls New mufflers - Flowmaster 50 series maybe a new fuel tank, need to learn more about the ones installed on it. |
