Just wanted to give everyone a heads up. I just brought home Tuesday night a 67 C10 my brother had been doing a frame off on. He lost interest so now it is mine. I will be asking alot of questions in the future do to the fact it has a LT1 and 4L60 in it. The engine and tranny are in it but alot of the lines/plumbing are not hooked up. I haven't dealt with LT1s in the past so it will be a learning experience. I also have to run new brake lines to the 74 front end with disks and the Ford narrowed nine inch with disks. It needs completely rewired also. And last but not least an interior. I almost forgot it also will need to be bagged caused it has been lowered alot. I hope to have it on the road by Labor Day. I will keep everyone posted as to the progress. Wootdog

Can't wait to see it, I spent all day in a helo hangar waiting for a flight out to the ship, looks like we're going to try again tommorrow.

Anyhow, I'll be back in a week.

when you get ready to do the fuel system/wiring for the LT1, I'll try to help...

I will be buying a donor truck or car soon for an TPI 350/auto that is still running strong in the 88 Formula 350 Firebird. I'd like one of our trucks to drop it all in, and will definately have some pointers, and maybe questions of my own
