    after doin front end clutch and steering column,truck feels like its in 4wd

    Are you sure that the front and rear pinion gears are the same ratio. If one is different than the other it can cause your issue. The ratio's are fighting each other.

    Building a new motor for my 79 C10 - would love some advice!

    You have received plenty of information on this engine. By the time you are done putting in all the parts you will be around 5 to 600 hp. It doesn't take much to make a 350 have 350hp and it wouldn't need aluminum heads but its up to you. Good luck
