I second the black chrome, and throw in some satin black on I few pieces as well, and I agree that booster set up looks awsome! It looks nice and clean!!

Today we peeled the paper off the polished intake manifold and the chrome has to go

and the black is in

Color is nice man and te black wheels would look killer. How about a black tinted clear over the shinny. Best of both worlds.

I do have a small block fuel injected twin turbo motor

If you look over on my suburban build you will see a picture of it. I have it on ebay right now. I would love the twin turbo but I have gone backward so much on this project I have to stay with the 454.

I love that double booster setup!

The double booster setup was kind of a crazy idea. I wanted the firewall as clean as possible and I did not want to see the brake booster. I also did not want the reverse peddle with a frame mounted booster. A buddy of mine just finished building the old 1950 chevy 1 ton and had used these boosters so we decided to try them on my truck.............all this work just for a clean firewall

Motor and transmission painted. I guess we will be pulling off the intake and having it powder coated black.

What's with the vise grip on the engine stand. Holding the wheel on ??

as a matter of fact it is...........good eyes

toocrazy · 08-18-2012, 09:58 PM

Just thought I would check in. We got the motor and transmission in. We had the block painted and then ended up putting it back in the paint room again. The oil pan was chrome and we decided to sand it down and paint it orange as well. I am still thinking about doing alot of black accents and getting rid of most of the chrome. The intake manifold and valve covers are polished but I am leaving them for now to see how this color decision proceeds.

We have a Camaro in the shop and here are the seats out of the car. I really want some small seats in the truck and thought I would slide this in just to see the size. I still have my factory c10 seats but I don't want to use them.....they sit too high for me.

**lolife99** · 08-18-2012, 10:02 PM

I would use the stock C10 seats with a modified/lowered seat height.

Your progress looks great!

Jimbabwe · 08-18-2012, 10:09 PM

Hell, I like 'em. A nice set of dimple died support brackets wouldn't hurt either.

nibs · 08-19-2012, 12:51 AM

I think the oil pan would look better in a satin black... It seems like a little much orange, but thats just me! What about anodizing that intake manifold black?

67c10rustbuket · 08-19-2012, 01:14 AM

Droooool!. The engine looks great in all orange. The Camaro seats look great in there too!!

I have had stuff powder coated but have not tried anodizing. Have you had parts anodized before. Is the cost the same?

big_al_71 · 08-19-2012, 08:00 AM

The color on that fender looks awesome.....I will also agree on blacked out wheels they will pop with the trucks color. The detail on that frame is definetly show worthy!!!! Would love to see this truck someday in person..

I havent actually had stuff anodized before, but I know for a fact that the black looks cool as hell! The aircraft I work on, all the metal parts are anodized black. and it looks pretty awesome

Thanks.......I guess I am going to have to take this truck to the World of Wheels and put some mirrors under it.

I hope we do get to meet someday.

toocrazy · 08-29-2012, 09:13 PM

I have been doing a little work on the truck and will post some pictures in the next few days. My calipers were delivered today via ups and I couldn't wait to bolt one on. Wow the Z06 calipers are massive

I knew it would be close but I am going to have to add a 3/8" spacer on the front wheels to add clearance for the wheels. It really isnt a big problem because I have a very hefty positive offset on the wheels because I wanted the front wheels to tuck well inside the fender wells.

raull · 08-29-2012, 10:34 PM

They are definitely huge , looks awesome

At this time I do plan on leaving the script on the calipers. I think it looks kind of cool.

Me too buddy. I might be taking a few weeks off the C10 pickup. We will be painting my 66 Suburban any day now and I would really like to get it back together. It will be nice to get one project under my belt.

toocrazy · 08-30-2012, 09:23 PM

I had this thought today I want to sell

my Bonspeed Wheels. Now that I am going to go with black wheels I just hate to powder coat these beautiful wheels. I also want to see more of these calipers and think a thinner spoke would look better. Might be a little tough because of the 24's on the back....not so many want to put that size on these trucks. Oh the problems we have with our trucks

Lolyin58 · 08-31-2012, 12:36 AM

Looking awseome. Which ever way you go it will look Killer!!!!

coulter · 09-13-2012, 07:57 AM
