Starting my 70 K5 build!

I am down to the frame now and it has been blasted and painted! I have superlift 4" suspension and planning on 33" tires. Drive train 383 stroker with nv4500 5 speed and np205 transfercase. Ring and pinions 4.27 and planning a trutrac in rear. Basically planning on 4wd hot rod and probably won't get too dirty! Any suggestions or comments welcome.

Need some pics. I'm taking mine down to the frame next month, nothing special just all factory but new parts.

Good luck.......

Subscribed. Like the idea of NV4500 and NP205.

Re: Starting my 70 K5 build!

Think about moving it over to the new build/project sub-forum, it's great!

Did not mention that I have a donor 72 for spare parts including power disc brakes and nice orginal rear seat and roll bar! How do I change this over to the build thread? Trying to upload pics! Hopefully they will upload.
