Nice truck man! I read the whole post over on the GMT site. Is that the $1500 kit from ridetech? I'm on the fence to do the same to my 91'. Only issue I have is the money I spend on the truck I can be putting into my chevelle. Decisions!

 

Thanks man! I have the same problem, my Nova project keeps getting pushed back due to my car ADHD

Drove the truck to work this morning, it has nearly 12K miles on StreetGRIP setup

 

beautiful truck!
Looking forward to more from this one

 

Can you provide the part number for that steering shaft? Kit looks awesome!

 

I looked on the website and it's a little weird. No model for my 96 c1500?

 

Borgeson 935 Steering Shaft

Ahh.. that's a completely different setup.

 

For 1995+ trucks have an 3rd joint, making replacement a little more difficult.

 

Buttoning up some last details before Power Tour. I added a Derale 9” auxiliary fan. The truck normally runs cool to normal, but it hasn't been in any serious heat yet.. plus, there are often long lines getting into events. Gotta keep it cool.. not to mention keep the AC cool for me

 

Took the truck on the Hot Rod Power Tour. It averaged 18mpg, not bad for 236k+ 350 sbc.

Great drive! The most fun part was the mountains between Martinsville and Bristol. RideTech StreetGRIP was getting a workout
Got in some laps at Bristol too.

6,603 total miles. San Diego to Charlotte. Long Haul to Norwalk, OH, and then back home to San Diego.

Picture highlights:






Bristol Baby!
