Right, and my block sports HP heads off a 67ish 396 SS.

Don't mind me, I don't know what I'm talking about. First off my kick down never worked. Second I had 8" wheels and 70s, so on and so forth, and I probably baby it too much. Everything works now, lots rebuilt, timing chain, trans., axle, carb. etc. I just changed the oil today and figured it's time to really test her out. It runs like a bat out of hell, I'm really surprised. Burns rubber all kinds of ways, but I still refuse to jump from a dead start Too many rocks.

With assys, the guide accts for 1000s details such as OEM identifications& part numbers, written in short order. 700+ images include assm, illust., charts, and points of interest. Much of the info. applies to all 67-72 GM trucks, and to a lessor degree all 67-72 GM vehicles. My build thread, and more on the guide https://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/...d.php?t=730025
