One day I will be their, i'm not worried about doing it once the body is on, thats how i bagged my 72. It looked alot like Big Al's up on jackstands

Until then I will just stare at your beautiful truck and pretend it's in my garage

Raul - Did you have to trim the lip of your rear step fenders? Assuming it's not drivable that low (?) How close are you to the inner bedsides?

Regardless of $ brother, if you've got it I say do it. You have one life, one time around. Enjoy it. Just my .02.

And, yes .. We definitely need to have an 'South East Coast C10 bash' like we talked about. Swap Meet spaces, Open show, etc. Maybe do it somewhere around the GA / FL line (?) donate the funds to Christmas for Kids or something. We'll work it out.

I love your plan for the engine! Please give us plenty of details and pics as you work through the install and tuning of the engine. I am very interested in how it goes.
