Re: 1966 custom cab short
Went with a 2.250" flowmaster you build it dual exhaust kit and dynomax turbo mufflers. The exhaust shops want around 2 grand for dual exhaust now.
Had to swap tailhousings from a s10 t5 tranny to my camaro t5. Then to retain my the top portion of my factory 2 barrel air cleaner i found a older 4 barrel base and cut it out to fit a newer style quadrajet riser and I was back in buisness |

Re: 1966 custom cab short
Really happy with the 327 and camaro T5 . The camaro ratios are night and day better and the little mouse engine rips and revs so quick . I’m revving 2100 rpm at 75 mph and no lugging, 3:73 rear ratio and 28" tires

Re: 1966 custom cab short
Nice work! The fresh 327 looks really good in there. Did you use a rattle can to paint it?

Re: 1966 custom cab short
This just gave me an idea to start a modern paint code thread for the 60-66 trucks. If you don't mind sharing it there, and here, please do.
