Re: Restoring 1980 C10 big ten.

Oh what's this, more truck surgery.

But why tear that engine down when you have so much else to do?

Well I ordered some full rollers and needed to get the roller tipped ones off so I could sell them.
I also wanted to get a better suited head gasket to get the quench in line.
Originally I had used a fel-pro 1003 squish size 0.041
Flat tops in the hole 0.014
A little on the large size for ideal quench.

New head gaskets 0.026 resulting in an ideal final endearment of 0.040.
Once the gaskets come I'll get it all put back together.

I still have a control arm to pull off the donor and all the control arms need to be painted.
