Re: 1963 C-10 in NC
The old 230 will go to Sharps40. He lives about 30min from me and we have done our share of parts swapping. I'd guess knowing him I'd stay tuned to the modified 6 cyl thread as I think hes looking to beef one up a little.
I hadn't planned on lowering it. I do have big block springs for the front, and I want to put the weight of the new engine & trans on the new springs before I make any decisions on ride height. Right now I'm running 235/75R15's.
My current gear ratio is a factory 4.10 and I still have the factory MC318 3 speed installed. I'm not sure what the 1st gear ratio is off top on that trans. I have two borg T-16's with different gear ratios, so more than likely if I don't like the 2.41 1st gear, I can always put in the one with the 2.86.
