Thanks Scott good to have you, your truck is beyond sweet. That was at my last house I was renting, I moved out earlier this year. That place was perfect I wish I could have bought it but it wasn't in the cards.

Hey Bill, Steve is right I got lucky for sure. I was in the right place at the right time with the right guys selling a truck. Steve your truck "short changed" is sick man, I was just reading the build thread last night.

BigDaddy yes they are 4" BS, here's a link to them:

Also, I decided at some point I don't want to mess with a 40 year old 2-barrel carb, OR a points distributor so my plan was to swap a 4-barrel intake, carb, and HEI on it. I go and pull the stock intake and look what I see:

I'd say it's a pretty good bet at this point that the 47K on the odometer is legit, after running the numbers on the block and confirming this is the 307 that came in the truck in 72. SCORE!!! This engine looks damn near new!!!
