Re: 1965 C10 Fleet Project - unfinished business
Final pictures of the pinion setup with its temporary bearings and the spacer pack shimmed up to provide the right amount of bearing preload.
Compared to air cooled vw performance stuff - this truck gear is so heavy duty...
Finally a bit of bling - I managed to source some original good used Mickey Thompson SBC valve covers that I will mount to the LS using adapters to try and make the motor look like it belongs to the truck. Painted in a semi gloss gold colour - the air cleaner will also use this colour to tie it in - not everyones cup o tea but I love a bit of old school stuff...
