Not really. Going to go look at a 65 Nova with a 383 in a few days. But not in a rush.

Thanks... I actually had these mufflers on here before, but I wanted to try out Flowmaster series 10s. These are a generic brand flowmaster, similar to the 40s series I believe. I would have tried out some new mufflers but after having to buy part after part for the front suspension I quickly ran out of money

I believe that tends to be an issue for most of us what I'll try to do this weekend is take the truck out for a quick spin let it warm up and idle and video it, I won't lie I love the 10's there loud and agressive sounding and with headers it makes it even better. In all honesty though if you like your things loud the 10 series is definitely the way to go I had a buddy of mine ride with me in the truck and he kept telling me yeah the truck is loud but when your driving it, it sounds so badass especially when you just lay your foot into it and keep it there.

Re: 1983 Chevy lwb slow build

So I know you said you were saving up for paint, but how's the truck riding with the drop? Anything new on it?

Re: 1983 Chevy lwb slow build

They're 15x8 all around. Not sure about the backspacing, never measured, and no I didn't get them from LMC but I'm pretty sure that they sell them on there.
