Here is a new joint project we have going on with one of our customers. It's a 1970 C10. The truck is being purpose built for autox and track day fun. As of right now here are a list of some parts it will have:


- Detroit speed 595 front clip
- Custom DSE component rear four link suspension
- AutoRAD core support and radiator
- T56 magnum transmission
- Race prepped dry sump LS7 engine
-19x11.5" front wheels and 19x13 rears (Formula 43 Rad10)

Should have more updates soon.

Yes, that is the plan. The owner hasn't been to any of the events yet, but is planning on attending some this summer.

Billy,Look's outstanding.

Thanks Scott! I'm really liking these trucks.

[72novadriver]

Looks great, do you how much ground clearance changed at the cross member?

I didn't measure the ground clearance of the old crossmember, but the new one is at the same height as the main frame rails and the rocker panel pinch welds. At ride height they'll be right about 3.75" off the ground.

I don't think we'll have anything there this year. Everything is still in project stage.

What kind of rotors are those?

The Rotors are DBA 5000 for c6 z06.

Billy I'm interested in how the 6 speed fits and how long the shifter will be. And how did it fit with floor pans
