Re: Restoring 1980 C10 big ten.

As for the rest of the drive train that is where I started and then it sat for some time in that state.

383 stroker
world s/r torqer heads ported/polished
decent cam (can't rem the specs right now)
summit 750 cfm carb
5.7" I beam rods with the cap screws for clearance on the crank
SCAT crank
flat pistons (federal mogul I think had a lightning bolt cut out of the special coating on the side) and if I remember correctly about a 10:1 comp ratio Premium gas is required anyway.

Had the deck blocked, honed, magna fluxed and all that other good stuff at the local machine shop.

put a shift kit in the th400 and added an aux tranny cooler

Ran braided lines for tranny cooler and fuel - will get close up pics of that when I move the front clip over.
