Re: L29 454 Build for '63 K15 with NV4500
A little out of order but still part of the process here. After I did the spring swap on the truck last year, I wasn't going to try to air down the 35s enough to get it in the garage anymore. I kept blowing the beads off of the 16.5s and the guys down at Les Schwab (bless them) were about to kill me when I pulled up for the 3rd time in the same day for a free remount and balance!. I ended up scoring a set of 16" wheels with some decent rollers on them from another member here that was local (Thanks Rick). This guy had the most well put together, bullet proof sleeper of a square body 3500!
With the new wheels on and aired down, the truck went right into the garage without any issue. I might even try out the tall skinny tire thing after all is said and done.
Well thats all for now. Im hoping to get the engines swapped within the week and then its on to start the wiring and fuel system.
