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.

I tagged my 82 GMS Stepside late last week. What a blast to drive. It has a 383 SBC.

Re: show me your 73-87 lowered/bagged c10's

Got my truck back from the shop today. Been there all week getting parts from Pro Performance bolted onto it. Lowered 5/5 with their stage 3 kit, 14" discs, 20x8.5/20x10 American Legend Streeter wheels, 245/40R20 and 315/35R20 Nitto Invo tires.

Wanted to go 255/35 in the front originally but the supplier didn't have any, so we were going to try a 275/35. But one of those got lost, so we settled on the 245. They fit really good though. The 315s look good on the back too, but that's pretty wide for a 10" wheel. There's more sidewall bulge there than I'd like to have so maybe when I burn those off, one at a time with my open diff, I'll go town to 295 or 285.

My 76. Should be 3/5 but I think she's more like 3/6.
