Hy 1955_Chevy_6400, There is a post right here in this forum about the same subject you are asking about, all you had to do was read the subject line of that post and you would have realized that. I feel you're jumping from one thing to the next on your proposed project, I would slow down and make a book which lists your proposed changes to your grandfathers truck, and then cost them out to see if you can afford to do what you're thinking of doing. Don't forget to include the cost of tools and equipment to accomplish your goals. I have always tried to operate on the 5P principle, Proper Planning Prevents Poor Performance! I'm really not trying to throw a wet blanket on your enthusiasm I'm just trying to bring you back to reality.
