Re: Uber Cool's 1963 C10 LWB Fleetside in England

Top end of engine strip down beings. The only photo I have of Mark working on HIS truck after this photo he opted to just drink tea and watch haha !


The head is off and away for rebuild. It's having all new valves, the valves guides re worked, unleaded exhaust valve seat and new inlet valve seats. It will then be rebuilt with twin crabs and a split 6 into 2 stove bolt manifold.

Other mods are to the suspension, new shocks all round and add in some restrictor valves to the air ride , so the front and rear drop at the same rate and in a nice manner. Currently the rear drops at a nice rate but the front due to engine weight drops like a stone! Which is uncool!
