Re: 305E Backfire out Carb and Exhaust
 

Nice truck. And a fun project for the boy. My thoughts on improvements. I also drive a 60-66 GMC most every day. Sun snow rain. On the free way at 70. Power steering is really a must. Second regearing to 3.54 is a must if you want to run 60-70. Disk brakes are OK but I can pull down my drum brake trucks nearly as well as my late model Chevy diesel with 4 wheel disk. The abs is the biggest difference. Most everyone who drives one of my 60-72 gm trucks always comment how well they handle. Stop steer etc. Finally I guese i would Recomend just get it in good mechanical condition and use it before big changes. Barry
