Thanks for all the replies gentlemen!! I have owned this truck now for 18 years, did all the work on it except the interior. The truck is running a 406 small block, tunnel ram with 2 500 edelbrock carbs ( rejeted for the altitude here) TH 400 with a 2800 converter, 3:08 gears 195 lbs per hole compression with a 472 lift 308 duration cam, centerline billet wheels, 72 nova ss front clip and rr, mono leafs on the rear and air ride technologies on the front with the shocks relocated... actually get about 8 in of travel and love it for the long drives, speaking of long drives I have logged over 84,000 miles on this truck in the last 14 years, so who says they dont get driven?? Workin on the next project already... 1948 GMC COE, thats getting stretched about 4 feet and will be running a injected 454 with a powerdyne super, and 4l80e tranny, lookin to pull my 5th wheel down the road, and yes this will be a daily driver!! later guys! and thanks!!! Marty
