Looking forward to seeing this one done!
Lol because I'm lazy and have been dragging my feet and never have any updates
Do it! I've only seen one other AD running supreme's online. I got them thru summit pretty cheap. Rear fits perfect with the blazer axle hammered the fender lips flat and its prob 1/8" clearance, front I'm running a 1" spacer and looks like I can still turn with it dumped at the ride height I want.

Right on still haven't gotten around to it! I did put the cab and front clip back on my frame to clear up some room in my garage.

That's the plan I have a new chrome shortneck high flow water pump with a billet impeller, chrome single wire alternator with billet brackets, billet pulleys stored away.

whats needed for the motor currently if my bearings look okay
- new freeze plugs
- gaskets
- new oil pan
- paint block, heads, and edelbrock intake manifold
- glassbead and polish my m/t valve covers
- ceramic coat my headers
- edelbrock carb
- batwing air cleaner
- timing chain cover
- double roller timing chain and gears
- 12 point intake manifold bolts


planning on leaving the cam alone since that can be done later with the motor in the truck
