Hi, my name is Dan. I'm new to the site. I recently acquired a 1974 gmc c1500 shorted stepside. The truck is coming apart this fall down to a rolling chasis and rebuild from there. I would like to start ordering some parts to ensure they are here when I need them. I plan replacing all a arm bushings, springs front and rear and would like to put a 2" drop on it. My question is I have a 502 that I might put in the truck. I want to make sure the truck isn't to nosed down with no travel left to the suspension.  And input would be helpful. Thank you.

The 502 isn't any heavier than a 454, so big-block springs should be sufficient.

We need pics of the build progress BTW.  :D

Ok, thank you. The truck is new to me. I had an 85 c10 20 years ago, just getting back into it. The body is a little rough but the chasis is in really nice shape. But lots of work to do. I gotta try to figure out how to send pics.
