Talking Update

OK.

I have driven the truck about 100 miles. It is ridiculously torquey. It spins tires in 1st gear. 2nd gear. 3rd gear. Wow! And at 85 mph in 6th gear, it still has enough torque to pull the entire trip without downshifting. I have to look at my RPMS again to see what it is running at. Just amazing. Dragonwrecker - I publicly thank you again! We are a great team - and you did some amazing fab work!

I am having a BLAST! I love this truck! It was worth the 6 months of build time.

It has come to a dead stop because I have to pay $530 for a set of Doug Thorley headers because they are the only ones that will clear the CPP engine perches and I can't afford them atm so my build is on hold.

Have you considered the BBk headers? They look to be about the same dimensions as the DT headers...

Great videos.
Please tell me you are going to install a 67-68 core support.
You gotta get those headlights back in position.
They detract from all the hard work you have done.
( my opinion)

Assuming you can put the power to the ground
You will need as wide of a rim and street slick as you can fit on it.
Also a hot cam (LS3) and a small shot of nitrous wouldn't hurt either.

Re: Dirty Dianah (No)... Bagged 72 Stepside/LSx/T56

I will be putting them in position for sure Lolife. Thanks!

Besides that, LSD, 10" rear wheels and tires among other things. This is just me having fun. It's not done, but I'm having fun driving it
