Glad to see that the internals were good on that engine. It ran good on my end, you just never know what lurks on the inside.

Wow! I am about 85% certain that I am going to TT my '71, but honestly scared to do it. I have never built anything forced induction. I think it will be fun though.

it is a lot of fun once your are done and have it tune right , but not an easy road to go down to unless you like to build and have patience to deal with all the changes and mods you have to do , and do lots and lots of reaserch before you start building or you will end up doing things over and over

Re: 1971 c10 stepside

small update !!! since im not working on the truck in the summer , i figure it will be a good time to tackle the tranny , lucky for me i have tech who build gm trannys for 20+ years here in our shop , the tranny was working fine but it need it some high end parts to be able to handle a little more horse power !!!!
