Re: 1966 Chevy SWB Gasser influenced truck

What size front wheels/tires (just want to verfiy the sizes haven't changed since earlier in the thread)?
How much clearance between the top of the tire & the inner fenderwell @ ride height?

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

Wow....thats nice. You are putting together one mean little truck. Perfect choices all around.

I agree on the valve covers, the corvette ones look the best.
