Details

This 1970 C10 stepside was built over a five-year period. The professionally machined and assembled 350ci 8-cylinder engine with 4-bolt mains was bored .040 over, and has Mahle pistons and rings with a mild COMP Cams .454/.444 lift and 268/260 duration with stock rebuilt heads. It is topped by a Weiand 144 supercharger and is fed by a FiTech Go EFI designed for blown applications. It has ceramic-coated long tube headers, 2.5-inch Flowmaster exhaust and an aluminum radiator with dual Derale electric fans controlled by the FiTech ECU. The stock TH400 automatic transmission has a standard rebuild and sends power through a rebuilt stock 12-bolt rear end with 3.73 gears. The brakes were converted to four-wheel stock GM-style discs, and the booster and master cylinder were relocated under the dash to clean up the engine bay. A 17-gallon fuel tank was relocated to the rear under the frame. The suspension uses CPP springs, shocks and drop spindles for a 5-inch static drop, and all bushings and joints were replaced with OE replacements. All vehicle wiring was replaced with a Painless wiring harness. The fully custom interior features Classic Instruments Autocross series gauges, smoothed dash, custom console, fabricated door panels and kick panels, professionally installed leather upholstery, and modern features such as heated seats, USB ports and Android stereo with 10.1-inch screen and Bluetooth. The white oak bed wood was stained Barn Red, the engine was painted Dodge Viper red and the body and full engine bay painted Dodge Granite Crystal Gray.
