Picked up a new truck

Hey everyone i sold my 84 c10 shortbed. within a few hours i went and picked up a 1973 chevy c10 longbed. it has minimal rust and is complete. has carpet, decent interior, brand new brakes and tires, and the best parts of all-


It has a factory 454 with th400! completely rebuilt with lumpy cam, brand new long tube headers with dual super 40 flowmasters. completely rebuilt 750cfm q-jet. It will lay down rubber for atleast 50 feet from a stop and the only reason it stops is because i dont want to push it that hard. I will get pictures up soon. oh yea, its scary fast- i lined it up with a brand new silverado and subaru wrx turbo both with exhaust systems and just pulled ahead of the subaru-left the silverado in the dust-before i hear any comments on this, it was on a huge 5 lane road with no one else on the road and we only hit about 75-this is the one and only time i will do this unless it is at a track. My neighbor who is a manager at edelbrock estimates its pushing atleast 350 horses. sorry for the long message im just excited-pictures to follow soon! Also, is it rare to have a c10 with a factory 454?
