Re: My '69 Suburban

Been a long time since I had any updates to post on the Burb. Pulled the engine apart to swap cams, as I wanted a little more power. I use the Burb to haul my gasser around, so I went with a Isky 264 Mega cam kit. Works well in the operating range I need for the Burb, and has a fairly smooth idle.
Also found a nice set of tires and wheels at the local swap meet to get a little more rubber on the road. I had 235-70-15 radials all around, and the new tire/wheel combo is 10" rear and 8" front, with 295-50-15, and 235-60-15 Coopers on ralley wheels. Picked up the set of tires and wheels for $500 at the swap meet.
