305....mileage of a v8 power of a v6. You cant safely bore it out to a 4.00" bore required for a 350. If its a solid motor I would throw a mild...

Good times. Just recently when bagging my truck I was taking the leaf spring u-bolts out. I had a pipe on the end of a breaker bar. I was...
Theyre just about perfect. Ride height puts them almost dead center between compressed and extended.
What book might that be and/or where can I find more info about that. :eek:

The bottom shock location has been moved so it bottoms out before it would be mounted to the new location even at ride height...not even with the...
