428 into a 64 c-10
 

well i am restoring a 64 c-10 and i have a spare 428 already to go so its going in. Has anyone done this? If so got any pics i could see. It will be about 520 hp or so. what degree does the block need to be angled? thanks isaac

Do it. You'll like it. I have a 69 c-10. Stock 400, chevy 400 trans with adaptor and 4.10 gears. I have 11" converter to install but right now I got sidetrack into another project, mostlly B-man fault. I used motor mounts from a ventura and made my own brackets. Hope this helps.

That would be sick! Sleeper or what? haha

well i finaly got arount to making brackets. I will post some pics as soon as i can get ahold of a digital camera.

Very cool, i have always wanted to put a Pontiac motor in a GM truck.

I have been told that the frame mounts for the 6 cyl chevy work great with the early A-body engine mounts. I have not done it, only been told by others who have.

i had the straight six motor mount perches that came with the truck but i have never liked modifing old brackets. I wanted a cleaner look so i started from scratch. still gotta get ahold of a digital camera.

Well after a long while i finaly installed the motor and trans! Instead of building up my 428 i bought a complete running 461 stroker with a built transmission for $2,000. It will be a while before its up and running, i still have to finish the fuel system and wire the truck. I have to learn how to resize the pics and then i will upload them.

lets see if this works

They'e a little small but they worked

Looking good!!!

Nice "clean"-looking truck- you're gonna' have fun!:)
Have you thought about what type of rear suspension yet?

getting closer to starting it, have to finish up the cooling system and ignition, I just bought "coy" c-5 rims, the flat black ones, they look awsome on the truck!! Pictures soon to follow

Any update on the build?

Got the truck up and running just need to finish the drivetrain and brakes. Moving along really slow but ill post pics soon.

Just came across your thread. I have done it twice so far. First was a 74 GMC and I put the large bolt pattern snowflakes on it. The second one was a 69 long box GMC. Put a 455 in that one. The wife enjoyed the one wheel peal on that one. Your project sure looks like a class act.

Me Too.....:D
