Re: 1971 c10 stepside

1000+ HP from that 'stock' 5.3L build you were doing !?? Page 8 - Post #184.

I kinda felt like you'd have to tweak a few minorthings while you had it apart. The 'twins' are going to be sick too.

Everything you touch turns to gold my brother. Amazing work. I'm jealous.

Re: 1971 c10 stepside

Going up this weekend to start it for the first time. I have the exhaust hung (may be too low, might have to go to mid length and tuck them a little more, we'll see) I'll post a video asap.

Re: 1971 c10 stepside

I don't think it will turn those 22's. .. I bet it won't.

Raul, such meticulous work. Seriously man, you could work for a high end Rod shop (Foose / Allen Callaway) any of those guys.

Have you ever considered opening up a place like that to do drops, fab work, etc. (?) I would imagine in that area you'd have a lot of business. Drops R Us meets Unique Whips kind of place.

Just throwing it out there.
