Just bought a 73 c10

I just bought a 73 2wd c10 lwb, got it for $1000, not too bad considering the prices that trucks are going for in cali lately. it has a 350, th400, and a 10-bolt rear end. the color is hideous, but some sanding and primer is going to fix that in the near future. ill be sure to put up some before pictures.

Im just curious what ideas you guys have for any easy power/performance options. I would like to swap heads and cam, it runs really well, i think the bottom end is pretty solid so most of my engine mods will be up top. any info on simple fixes/power upgrades would be appreciated.

id also like to lift it a little, nothing crazy just 4" at most. any ideas on how to go about it would also be appreciated, i understand that in order to do most of the aftermarket spindle lift kits you have to swap for 88+ control arms.. is that correct?

thanks in advance
Lee
