Re: My 71 custom10 deluxe
Man that's a nice project, the frame looks great. Motor is awesome especially with that fuel injection setup sitting on top. Planning to do a rear mounted tank myself and obviously the rockers and cab corners. You're in the home stretch now.

Re: My 71 custom10 deluxe
I really like it, i'm on a 3" pulley so putting out around 11psi of boost. I'm maxxed out on my current setup though. Any more and I'll need injectors, cam, transmission upgrade... You know the list just grows. It's a lot of fun to drive but I'm needing a change of pace and stepping back to my C-10 roots is just what I need.

Re: My 71 custom10 deluxe
Any room left to modify the center grille brace and put it in front of the radiator?
I had fun stacking all the heat exchangers in my 06, so I feel your pain. |

It's been awhile since I posted any pictures of the truck here are some new ones.Just lowered truck 2 more inches in back for total of 7" and lowered front 2.5 more for a total of 5.5" front drop.Wheels are Eagle 225's
20x8.5 (5"backspace),20x10 (5.5"backspace).Pirelli pzeros 275/35/20 front,315/35/20 rear.There is no frame notch in rear still room between axle and frame.About to get back on project and get this thing finished.
