1972 Chevrolet C-10 Additional Info:
So we started by removing everything. Stripping the frame adding a c notch and coating with chassis coat. All new brakes and stainless steel brake lines were installed along with disc brake conversion in the rear, new booster and master installed also a vacuum pump if needed for the 228r Texas speed cam that was installed combined with Texas speed pushrods and titanium retainers on the double over valve springs. Then went to the 15 gallon fuel tank between the fuel rails a 255 gph pump twist lock fuel lines and corvette fuel filter/regulator assy. Up to Holley high flow rails accompanied by Fast 36lb injectors with a mid rise Holley intake manifold and 95mm throttle body topping off the engine. All new accessories include the alternator power steering pump crank pulley idler pulley and tensioner radiator dual electric fans and a Psi wiring harness to control and run this engine controlled by a psi ecu tuned in Richmond Va with a base tune to run and drive. Transmission is a reman 4l65 with 2500 stall converter mating engine and trans custom driveshaft built with aluminum center bearing all cross members under the truck are new from CPP. Suspension started with new lower control arms front and rear then new ball joints in the front with 3 inch lowered spindles and topping it off with airmaxx air ride large tank and two compressors then a custom built heimjoint watts link to keep the rear straight. Exhaust is long tube headers to 2.5 tubes going to polished glass pack style mufflers and custom boom tubes exit the side of the truck. Rear end is gm 12 bolt cleaned and installed 4.10 gears with posi trac rear. The interior is a Dodge Ram 1500 front seat wired so drivers is power polished tilt column Dolphin gauges new carpet and a center console built for two cup holders and a pair of 6x9s powered by kicker 4channel amp. Do have an extra bed that needs less body work with tailgate and an extra hood feel free to ask any questions and I'm positive I have missed something but it's a nice truck it needs a dyno tune to get it to its potential and make sure all the sensors are set properly. This is an excellent start for someone who wants a turn key project to do body and paint or if you like it the way I do, keep it real 72 get her tuned and drive it oh and it does handle nicely with the CPP front sway bar. Require 1000 non refundable deposit at end of auction and remainder upon pickup. Wheels are staggered 20x9 and 20x10 riddler rear is wrapped with 315/35/20 and front are 255/45/20. The inner and outter rockers have been replaced along with a portion of the floor pan as most of the floor pan was in great shape, after partial floor pan installed the floors were covered in a sound deadening material, the cab corners had already been replaced when i got the truck so we left them alone. The bottom of the cab was sprayed with raptor liner for protection before setting it on new bushings mating to the frame. Throttle is controlled by lokar accelerator cable and transmission by tall 18 inch lokar shifter. The exhaust note on this truck will make most prius owners angry while they are pulled over checking their pants.
