welcome from centeral florida. looks like a good solid start will make a fine looking slick.

I used to haul quick lime out of calera back to fl. a few years ago. nasty bussiness but made good money at the time.

It's a tough decision, the 223 does run good but, i do have a sweet stock 65 289. either engine will retain 3 on the tree.

i am going to put on disc brakes on the front for sure.
i'd like to lower it at least 3 inches, maybe 4.
