    402 BBC

    Yeah I saw a thing where people use muriatic acid to clean it up. The head's and the block are both from a 1970 passenger car so I'm assuming a Camaro or Nova maybe possibly a corvair? Sent from my LM-G710VM using Tapatalk

    It's been stored in a lean-to-barn for about 4 years, so most of that's just surface rust. I am taking it to a local machine shop to have it magnafluxed and also have the cylinder walls checked out before I start doing anything to it. Sent from my LM-G710VM using Tapatalk

    Just bought a 402 big block with the original heads. I'm thinking about leaving the bottom end all stock and only doing performance parts on the top end. I've seen where guys get almost 550 horse from just doing that. Anybody else here put a 402 big block in their C10? Wanting to turn this into...

    Frame swapping

    Thank you, I really only have about 4 bad spots and I can easily get the C channel to repair. My welding is not so bad either so I can chop and weld if I have to. Sent from my LM-G710VM using Tapatalk

    Frame swapping

    I wouldn't be opposed to using a vehicle of a different type, I would go newer vehicle if I did that for the modern suspension setup. Sent from my LM-G710VM using Tapatalk

    Frame swapping

    Right before the rear axle it looks like it was split or cut and someone did a shit welding hack job on it. I'll have to get pics when I get home, I just didn't know if it would be worth replacing, fixing properly, or finding another c10 frame. Sent from my LM-G710VM using Tapatalk

    Hello I'm Frankinmetz

    Here's a couple of shots of the body. That silver tape is where I have the hole. And then you can kind of see on the passenger side bed where the guy hit it. Sent from my LM-G710VM using Tapatalk
