I had my Chilton manual for my '76 C-20, and I remember they were like 137 132 - something like that - and I was wondering if anyone had the correct numbers for a 1960 Apache.
I just signed up today, and wanted to say the '60 to '66 buyers guide in the techtips was very helpful. Thanks to Woogeroo for some great info! | | | | | Joined: Jan 2007 Posts: 118 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jan 2007 Posts: 118 | L-6 235 and 261 Cu. In.---------------130 Pounds (min)

I ended up getting a '64 C-10 with a 350 and TH350 transmission, Edelbrock competition carb, headers, flowmaster, ect.
- a mad hot rod -
It's fast AND loud!
I'll take some pictures if it ever stops raining.
Thanks a lot Ken for taking the time to answer my question! | | |
