new owner in Texas
hi guys,
I just bought this 64 c10 roller as my latest project. I am stoked because the possibilites are endless. ultimately though, it will be a big block bruiser. I have a few questions though, as I cant find a site with specs on these things. 1. how much does it weigh?? Im asking because Im contemplating putting a 468 I was originally building for my 71 nova in this bad boy. however, my friend thinks it weighs 5000lbs and in that case, I would rather put the 468 in the nova. 2. what rear end came with these 3. what is the biggest tire that can be fit in the rear 4.do any special mods need to be made to the engine bay to accept a big block chevy??? these are the questions I have for now. thanks for letting me be a part of the group.
