This is going to be a slow build and I'll try to keep updating as I go.

I'm starting with a bone stock '90 D150. Plans are a nice 360/727 for the street, step side bed, lowered with 50 series tires all around. My wife wants ghost flames, I want a hood scoop, probably go with the flames.

Bought an '82 for the bed.

 

New shoes.
American Racing AR 23 wheels. 15x8 front and 15x10 rear.
Hankook tires. 265/50r/15 front and 295/50r/15 rear.

 

Found a rebuilt 360 and A727. Only 1500 miles on them.

The motor is a 360. Flat top pistons, thin head gaskets (should make about 9:1 compression), Lunati cam, ported, bowled and polished heads with 2.02 intake valves 650 Edlebrock carb, Edelbrock Performer intake and long tube headers.

Trany has a 2000 rpm stall converter and shift kit.
Should be fun!!

 

Looks like fun! What color are you going to paint it?

 

Thanks! I'm staying with the original Spectrum Blue.

 

Engine painted. Ready for it's new home.

 

A little progress.

 

Nooo. Don't do the flames, she's beautiful as is! I dig the wheels.

 

Thanks!
Might need to keep Momma happy though. LOL
