Re: 1971 Chevy K10 DD Build
Alright, long time and slow progress. Just had my first daughter and definitely not making it down to the shop like I used to. Anyway, got the clip and cab taken off, frame cleaned and undercoated. Swapped the auto column and pedals, installed a hydro clutch master. Bought the 5.3, cut down the wiring harness, and just got it set in there. I now have a question about angles, I have a 2001 Silverado (same year the engine is out of) and on a flat surface that engine sits at 7.5 degrees. I placed the engine at 7 in my 71 but according to a few posts 4 degrees is the best for these engines. I really dont want to drop the engine any further so I guess my other option is to raise the transmission/transfer case. Let me know what you think.
