Have always searched and got in the forum to read and get ideas cause i have been looking for a decent k5 for a while.
Well got me an a/c power steer 2wd k5 in really good shape but has been torn apart to paint the frame. That is done and now i got poly bushings to bolt back up to frame also i have parts for it already. 6.0 aluminum block with ported l92 top end with holley hi ram custom grind cam and arp studs and bolts 22x8.5 22x12 intro apache wheels that are originally concave but got straight spokes. 335 25 22 for rears 265 30 22 front Ported built hood hindghes And looking for the a good set of control arms and drop member without finishing my wallet any ideas welcomed ive build plenty of vehicles and dont have a problem but not a c10 so im new to this. Also size bolts for fenders and doors i want to do stainless bolts radiator support and all that. these are some vehicles i have and some have been sold Daily driver  Daily driver/work truck and its for sale 2008 1500 z71 lt  Previous project has been sold  2008 20k miles started as a 5.3 head and cam the went forged ls2 with a buily 4l70 with transbreak and all the goddies u can get   This was my other project i sold cause i never found a decent painter that i like and wouldnt take forever it was boddied and custom upper and lower arms and spindles and 24x8.5 24x10" intro wheels  One of the cars i regret selling 09 g8 gxp m6 head and cam 19x9 19x11 ccw wheels   I have more pics of previous cars but these are recent |
