Re: '67 Stepper "Laymond"

Summers flying by with the truck covered in dirt and cobwebs. A few weeks ago I placed my order with Porterbuilt for their tubular trailing arms and longer trac-bar. This will complete my Level 1 front and Stage 2 Deluxe rear. I'm hoping to see them in the next 2-4 weeks.

I've debated and debated and can't shake the idea of mating a manual behind the 6.0. So I'm now 99% sure I will be placing my order soon with RPM for their T56 Magnum and bell housing. First we have to replace Jen's car with a new(er) one and then it's time to order the 6-speed.

Lastnight after getting home from a wedding I got on FB and saw a buddy from Indy was selling a set of 243 heads. I immediately sent him a message and committed to buying them on the spot. They are only suppose to have 15k miles on them. Plan is to mill them slightly and install my BTR valve train to bump up the compression a bit. A good cam, headers and larger injectors should make for a pretty fun combo.

The new heads:
