After re-adjusting my panhard bar to make sure the rear end was perfectly centered, I lowered down the truck to realized that I had a perfect fit. Even had a little room for bed flex.
I did 9.75" BS on mine but my truck was alot lower (I needed them tucked more for outside clearance). Looks cool when you see it from behind don't it?!

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
