Re: Slot mags vs pyo's

It does. I honestly have not had a C10 in 24 years. With my new C10 it has been 3 C10's, 4 C20's, 1 C30, and a F250.

I remember why I switched, but I don't remember if it was completely nessacary. What happened was I got a old Caltrans truck in near mint condition for $750 with a supposedly bad motor. It was a bad Q-jet with a leaking plug I believe. Either way it ran horrid. I put a new carb on it, and took a bunch of springs out of the rear. Plus a bunch of new replacement parts to make it nice again plus helper air bags. I was very happy with my $2000 dollar truck, but wished I had a C10 at that point.

So when I went with a friend to get a few engines we wanted to buy, and a car he wanted. It handled the weight so well that I never went back.

Now I am back Ina C10 because I had to have a Stepside, and found one stupid cheap.

So do I go with what I know to work the way I want. Or just polish up the C10 suspension because it will be good enough.
