Re: "Oaky" Farm Fresh '73 Short Step
Welcome. I was concerned about getting in the way. And Ogre provided a really good explanation so hopefully that will work.

Re: "Oaky" Farm Fresh '73 Short Step
Glad you're tuning in!
Not in the way at all. That's a good resource.

Re: "Oaky" Farm Fresh '73 Short Step
Cool build! Any particular reason why you decided against the 60101 cam?

And a free Lunati t-shirt!

Thanks! After talking with burger and crunching some numbers in a simulator, the 60101 would have me losing too much torque in the low end which I need to get the truck moving. So i decided to step down one profile and retain a good torque to horsepower ratio early in the power band. I'm only sacrificing a few foot lbs higher in the rpm range. I think with the longtubes and cam set-up, it'll make plenty of power out of that little 307 w/o overcamming it.

Re: "Oaky" Farm Fresh '73 Short Step
No need for selfies, just the truck will do. I talked to a painter about clear coating my 85, he said he could prep it and spray it in a few days for $500. Flatten the clear down enough to look good over the original camo. I think I'm going to try it. Robbie, Oaky is looking good!

Hello Robbie,
That's a nice collection of parts you've accumulated. When do you think you'll put it all together? Ed

Re: "Oaky" Farm Fresh '73 Short Step
I've had it on CL off-and-on for a few months. It's up now but I'm not sure what I'll do. My wife is having a baby in January or early February so I could make use of some extra room. But honestly, who knows.
I can never make up my mind.
