Re: 1961 lowered spindles
You should be able to swap the complete crossmember to a '73-'87 unit for less than the cost of the early balljoints. Not counting your labor of course. There's not much in the way of performance parts for the GMC V6's. They are dsigned for low rpm torque. Some guys have upgraded the original carb for a Holley 500cfm 2bbl. I think there is something you can do with the distributor too, just don't remember what. If you do a search, I'm sure you'll find some info.
