"Captain Chaos C10" Build Thread - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Sleepy Cheyenne · 10-04-2015, 05:31 PM

Hey guys I'm an old member, I have owned the truck for almost a year now. Thought I would finally put a build thread on my truck. The reason I call the truck Captain Chaos is because it's either causing me chaos (mechanical wise) or I'm causing chaos with it. Feel free to leave comments and opinions.

Sleepy Cheyenne · 10-04-2015, 05:32 PM

Dun Dun Dun.

Sleepy Cheyenne · 10-04-2015, 05:34 PM

A good example of chaos.... when I broke a axle. It's been fixed since then.

**Boog** · 10-04-2015, 06:54 PM

Dun Dun Dun!!! Ah Captain Chaos. I see you found a weak spot.

Well have you started a build yet?

Sleepy Cheyenne · 10-04-2015, 07:01 PM

It's kind of on going. Like all projects are.

I opened this thread just to see if there was gonna be a Cannonball Run referance!
That is an awesome title for a build thread!

Yeah like I said before it had a spool, bald tires, and 3.73s. Now and days I just laugh about it.

Sleepy Cheyenne · 10-06-2015, 12:39 AM

So I guys I guess I should give you some more information about me and the truck. The truck is a 1970. It has a LQ4 and TH350, with a Victor Jr. Intake, Comps camshaft, and 5.3 heads. Some of my future plans are to get new wheels, new intake manifold, new heads, new tailgate, and other small things. Maybe build it up to a 370 or 408. Here is some Captain Chaos latest trouble he decided to give me Sunday. Hood hinge rivet broke, it's got fixed today.

BCOWANWHEELS · 10-06-2015, 03:03 AM

a spool on the street

Yeah, I didn't install it myself the previous owner did. You can use a spool or mini spool on the street but in most cases, if you are using a different spline count and a stronger metal than what came from the factory.

Sleepy Cheyenne · 10-06-2015, 12:16 PM

Here is a picture of the LQ4 and the Victor Jr. intake

Sleepy Cheyenne · 11-01-2015, 03:31 PM

So here is a update for you guys got my new chrome bumper and park lights on the truck.

Sleepy Cheyenne · 11-01-2015, 03:39 PM

The new intake manifold the Edelbrock Performer RPM

**Boog** · 11-01-2015, 10:20 PM

Dun dun dun dun.

Ian71GMC · 11-02-2015, 10:56 AM

what was left of my spider gears in my old 12-bolt. Too many one-wheel peels with a 400hp 383 stroker

Sleepy Cheyenne · 11-21-2015, 05:50 PM
