Re: 77 c10 5.3ls turbo

Thanks. Been making progress. Basically I am done with everything in the engine bay, exhaust, tranny. May fire the truck up this weekend.

Need to order driveshaft tomorrow and finish welding up the crossover pipe.

I decided to address the rearend now so I pulled it out. Talked to my guy about doing a 9", his opinion is that the 12 bolt was plenty strong. Bought an Eaton posi, TA performance girdle and 1350 yokes. Sticking with the 3.08 , rearend guy said 3.08 are great ratio for a turbo street car. He is going to check out my axles to see if going aftermarket is a good idea.
