Re: 1960 Apache K10 build
well...I did some heavy duty parts shopping...
The back story, I did a job earlier this year, and I worked pretty much every day in march. And as I was sitting in the frozen town of Grande Cache in the middle of a snow storm, I told myself that I was going to take all the money I made on that job, and put it into this build. It was the only thing that kept me motivated to show up to work every day, haha. So I don't feel as guilty ordering all the fancy bling bling parts. So anyhow, here is the list I have bought so far. BDS 4.5" lift kit with Fox shock upgrade Classic auto Air AC system Entropy radiator Dakota digital RTX gauge package Brothers trucks bed sides, front fenders. Delmo speed retro intake manifold kit to make the LS look like an old school SBC Summit racing- Holley two piece finned aluminum 2 piece valve covers Finned valley cover complete American autowire wiring harness flaming river steering column new Fast 39lb/hr injectors 3200 RPM converter new Comp K54-426-11 cam kit 4 corner steam kit flowmaster 3" stainless u build exhaust kit flowmaster stainless 3" delta flow 50 mufflers Texas speed stainless headers I also ordered an HP tuners thingy. so that will be another thing i need to learn how to use. Yes...my credit card is so hot, I can hardly hold onto it. And no, I do not feel any shame. I also bought a set of junkyard 862 heads which I plan to try porting myself. I have read a bunch on it, and I like the idea that they bump compression on the 6.0. I've never done porting before, so I will see how it goes.
