    I think I just got screwed. Advice?

    I completely understand the issue with mark ups, but especially here in Communist California where I live, we have to mark up 100%. We mark up labor and parts 100% and my pricing is still right in the middle on all of my HVAC work. Our average service technician here is making between $38-55...

    Quad Shocks?

    Correct. I can't say the Rancho quad shocks I put on the 89' didn't help (old ones were over 10 years old), but they are all very similar if not the same. I have 18 way adjustable QA1's on the 77' and it is unreal how much the adjustability changes the characteristics of the truck. I can...

    Lower or not?

    I'm not a fan of lowered long beds. I only have one lowered truck, my 77'. I also have my lifted 89' V2500. Oddly enough, the 77' rides the best even though its lowered. Do what you want, its your truck. And unless you put a giant wing, and a family size nacho cheese can for a tail pipe, there...

    Frame cracked.

    I was concerned about that, and installed these relocators. A few different companies produce them, and they are inexpensive. I think I paid about $40. It slightly improves the angle of the shock as well. Not mine, just a stock photo.

    Wilwood bolt in twin piston calipers?

    You can pick up a set of calipers with pads out the door for just under $400 including shipping. The Baer rotors are about $150/piece, and I had the hats powder coated semi gloss black. I only did that because the rears only Wilwood kit are already black on the hat. Like I said you do not have...

    Wilwood bolt in twin piston calipers?

    Correct. You don't need to change to rotors either. I just wanted them to match the rear.

    Wilwood bolt in twin piston calipers?

    No, I'm still vacuum, albeit with a vac canister due to the cam...thought about hydroboost, but this works so well, I can justify changing it.

    Wilwood bolt in twin piston calipers?

    I have the D154 rears as well, but it's really for looks. The POL blackout Wilwood master and prop valve look great too.

    Wilwood bolt in twin piston calipers?

    I have them, with the Baer Eradispeed rotors And they are unbelievable. You wouldn't think such a simple change would make such a big difference. And for all those to think it's not apples to apples, my existing factory setup was in very good condition and were very respectable for their age...

    Lowe's is closing quite a few stores out here in Communist California. But, that price is better then the going out of business price!

    400 CID SBC Chevy heads

    I understand $$$$ having 3 kids, but I just shopped around out curiosity this morning and found new (open box never installed) complete aluminum sbc heads for $400. That was 10 minutes of searching tops. How much more money are you going to spend in gas putting your foot into it with mediocre heads?

    Can someone point me to threads on 350 vs 400 cid

    That's funny. I would mind taking you for a ride in my 77 and scaring the **** out of you, all will never going over a 195゚ lol

    400 CID SBC Chevy heads

    Sure, if you wanna put the time and effort into doing that with those heads, it's going to be your most cost effective route. But if you have a better design cylinder head, it doesn't cost very much. I don't see why you wouldn't use a nice set of aftermarket, or better GM heads. With no porting...
