Re: New member pics
Here are some more pics. The truck came with a 350 HO create engine(330 HP), these 20inch wheels(thinking about going back to stock set up), and it came dropped(not sure on how much). I'm looking at changing the gears in the rear, swapping out intake and carb, and installing a stall converter to really bring the engine to life.

Re: New member pics
I like it. Simple, clean, reliable. Not so big on the billet items, but to each his own.

Re: New member pics
Looks good to me, and I like the wheels on it now.
Before you change a lot of things, find out what rear gear it has. If it has 3.08s or higher changing them will make a HUGE difference in power.

Re: New member pics
I like the wheels!! I would work out a deal on the wheels if you are serious. I have stock wheels and would pay some boot.

Re: New member pics
I like it with the wheels that are installed... just bring the front down another 1 1/2" (IMO). Nice truck...
