Those guys that run the HP engines in the C10's. I have a 1971 C10 with a current 12 bolt with 4.10's with plans of running a tire somewhere around 28"-29" an about 11 inches wide. If I go to 29" tires may go with 4.56's. I will be running a BBC with around 550 HP with extra 150 shot. The truck should weigh in around 3900. The converter is going to be around a 4000 stall.

What do you run to make your truck hook an be reliable? I do not want to be going through alot of rear ends. Oh yea, street driven some not much mainly around town.
