History
I bought this truck almost two years ago. It has been a project of mine that I am extremly excited about. My dad and I have put in countless hours and the truck is really starting to come together. Now that it will be up and running soon, I figured the performance of the truck will be next on the list. My dad and I are not not big car guys as this is our first attempt at working on a vehicle from the ground up, down to the last nut and bolt. I know there are some amazing gear heads on this site that have forgot more than I know about the 460. Thats why I joined.

Modifications

Drivetrain
The engine block is a C8VE-A block. The timing chain, crankshaft, and pistons are also from 1968. However, the cyclinder heads are D3VE heads.
Exterior
The right front of the truck bed had some major damage from some serious mudding by the previous owner. I bought a new outter bed pannel from LMC along with a new cab corner. If it wasnt for the damage, the truck would have been in perfect condition with almost no rust. we now have everything done underneath the truck except for the exhaust.
Suspension
Rancho RS9000xl shocks and original leaf springs
Wheel and Tire
Mickey Thompson Classic lll Rims and leathal performance spiked lug nuts
