Hi Toddoky,

Any plans in the near future to test fit any of these swaps parts for 73-87 4x4 K10 trucks, or develop some swap parts specifically for 4x4 square bodies? I'm building a 1979 GMC Sierra Grande currently and getting ready to put a LY6 6.0L LS engine in it backed up by a 4L80e. It's a K10 but I'm throwing a one-ton running gear underneath it with the Dana 60 axle in front and Corporate 14-bolt in back, both with 4.11 gears. I'd love to have a nice set of stainless steel full length headers, transmission crossmember, direct fit exhaust system with side exit etc. etc. for 4x4 trucks. I love the C10's but they don't do so well in a Montana winter.

Best,

Jeremy
