Wow great info guys thanks...I'm gonna look for some numbers, I hope you're right and it's a 327!

I've found 16.5 tires on Amazon from for about $170 a piece. You think a 16 would be better though? Any 8 lug 16" from 67- into the 80's? Might look on Craigslist or a junk yard if that's the case. What tire would look originalish on a 16" wheel? I'd like a taller skinnier tire, it's a beast to turn and I've only gotten it up to about 55mph, it's geared really low, I think 5.11 (I looked at the numbers when I pulled the diff cover and it was the lower geared HO52)

I've seen a lot of 3/4 tons with the 70-80's hubcaps, maybe I'll do that and just paint them more of a 60's color than chrome and gold!?!?
