Re: Re-doing "La Blue" once again
I think you can get most of that from Patrick's. I remember the owner said in his thread he ground the intake manifold smooth before painting and he (obviously) painted the distributor cap too. Personally I love the very old school cool beehive remote oil filter the old 235's had back in the day.

Re: Re-doing "La Blue" once again
Your truck is really nice. I like the wheel/tire combo with the air ride setup. AWESOME

Re: Re-doing "La Blue" once again
What cam and heads are you running? I wound up buying a brand new LY6, which is an iron 6.0L with VVT and the L92/LS3 style heads. I'll be making it a carb'd LS and loosing the VVT...at least for now anyway. Ordered my 500+hp capable 200-4r and 2500 stall convertor today.

Re: Re-doing "La Blue" once again
I've read your thread a couple of times now, man thats a beautiful truck..... You never did say what the back spacing was of the rims.. I would like to go 20x10 in the rear too... Can you possibly snap a pic of the rear fenders to show how close it is and how you trimmed them..
Thanx Trevor
