1979 C-10 Shop/Race Truck Build

[HP HUNTER]

When the rear end was installed we went from a 13.9 to 13.4 ET at high altitude, but I still felt the truck didn't pull through low gear like it should, 1.92 60 foot, knowing the stocker trucks went 1.77 @ Denver this bothered me, although I knew they were 300 pounds lighter, but didn't have my HP. My focus turned to the driveline which is a disaster on a 79 C-10, heavy rear brakes, heavy discs up front, which only accept a heavy tire rim combination, 6 lug. So I looked at the Lamb front brake setup and decided I didn't want to spend the money and wait (wish I had) so I tried to go the LM1 Camaro front disc setup which required I believe a 1981 and newer front spindel, but could never figure out the caliper setup so I had the original style heavy front discs redrilled for a car bolt pattern. I now could get a race style front tire and rim on the truck. I still had the ultra heavy 2 piece drive shaft robbing me............................
