Don't want to thread-jack myself but.. Just did a '50 Chevy coupe and turned out very nice. BUT, the early morning dew did leave small rust spots which I wasn't too happy about. Should've covered it up, but had a fan drying the inside out over night.
I'm torn between blasting the R-side of the truck also or just leaving it.
Also, thinking of using a Chevy 406 that I've had built about 20yrs ago (sitting in plastic) with that Alison. (might even be able to spin those Super Singles without that bed on. With that granny-low that 400+hp should do it)
OR, use the 4L80e, but then to rebuild it, Converter and a shift controller would be OVER 1K$$$
IF anyone sees a link or knows of someone who makes adapters for the 1+ton, 10-lug to Semi-10-lug let me know or post links.
OH yeah I've found some but @ 5-600$ each is just plain goofy..
