My first restoration.

[Goldie80]

Hello everyone. I hope you are all having a great day. October last year, my wife and I found her grandfathers c-10 and was able to purchase it back from the guy who bought it 10 eyars ago. It has a chevy 230 it it that I am having rebuilt to stock specifications. I have made some changes though. I have had the engine balanced. I have dual offenhauser intake with dual carter weber carbs. I also have dual cast iron headers from Tom Langdon. I have heard from Mr. Langdon that installing an x-pipe can help with power a little, but affect the classic "split exhaust" sound. Does anyone have experience with this? When I have everything put together, I have been told to expect around 185 hp and around 220 lbs. torque. Do you agree? Thanks for the help all. Have a great day.
