Because I know you all like to see and hear stuff too....
The engine was still pretty cold and didn't want to idle well in gear.
Not bad sounding from a cheesy little "RV" cam with 9:1 compression in a 307 with Summit Vortec heads on it...

Not much has gone on with the truck.
Well, he put the rest of the exhaust on it as it was overpowering inside the bare cab.
We had to wear earplugs as it would resonate horribly.

He still needs to put a crossover into the exhaust.
But he loves it.
For a simple 307, it rips and pulls hard past 6,000 and will break them loose at the shift points.

Last week Junior found a set of 15x10's for the rear of his truck to go with the 15x8's he has for the front.
He ended up accidentally buying a 5x5 lug pattern for the rear instead of the 5x4.75 he has.
But since he already has spacers on the rear, he simply purchased a new set that has both patterns.
The tires on the wheels are 275/60/15's for the rear and 255/60/15 for the front.

Previous set of wheels under it.

These wheels look way better on the truck with the same tires.
He had also last week stripped and repainted the front fenders of the terrible faux patina from the PO.

He drives the wheels off of the truck.
Currently it leaks transmission fluid and that is bugging him.
So he is saving to put the 4L80 into the truck currently.
