I recently purchased a 1973 chevy 1/2 ton..she needs some work.

Engine is a small block 350, 100,000 miles on rebuild. She also came with a th350 tranny.

Upgrades she came with:
Eddlebrock 4bbl carb
Msd ignition
Hooker headers
Flow master exhaust

I just added a cast aluminum racing tranny oil pan with drain plug.

I am new to these trucks and think they are awesome.
I am no master mechanic, but I can definitely learn as I go.
I bought the 1973, mechanics manual and I hope to pick some of your brains, as upgrades, and repairs continue.
