Cool pickup. Couple comments:

The shocks were canted inward lo Ile that on 60-62 4wd pickups. 63 and up they were canted Fwd. That looks to me like a factory chevy setup rear axle.

You can always tap that 4bbl manifold and install a plug with tapered pipe thread, if you want to save it. I would use a brass/bronze plug.

I wasn't aware that Dana made 60 rear axles with 6 lugs. I had assumed this truck was a k20.
