Re: 68' Chevy c10

Re: 68' Chevy c10
 

Thanks man! Do you have a build thread of you truck? or some pics of it. I'd like to check it out.
Thanks bud! you better be workin on you truck right now.:lol:
Thanks Johnny, Your motor looks amazing just like it is. You can do orange on the next one.;)

Re: 68' Chevy c10
 

Engine looks sweet in there! Are those block hugger headers? They fit ok? Someone gave me a set, im considering using them.

Re: 68' Chevy c10
 

Thanks man! They are block huggers. I'm glad I didn't blast and paint 'em, because they only have 2.5" between the collector flange and the crossmember. If the motor were mounted in the rear mount location they would work. easy access to all plugs, and starter. I'm getting a set that will fit my application. Here's a pic of the clearance issue.
