Custom 1966

-

CALEB VOIROL’S ’66 CHEVY C-10 CUSTOM CAB IS NOT JUST A PROJECT, IT HAPPENS TO BE HIS DAILY DRIVER. The truck has mostly original paint and an uncut dash along with the original bed wood floor. Caleb personally built the 355-ci motor last fall starting with a bored, honed and decked 1970 four-bolt main steel crank motor. An added Edelbrock 1405 600-cfm carb and Edelbrock’s Performer

EPS intake work alongside the Lunati Voodoo 60102 camshaft and lifters. He used 11.5:1 flat-top aluminum pistons, Summit Racing 202-style iron heads, a Melling high-volume oil pump and a Moroso 7-quart oil pan. A custom-machined aluminum pulley spacer was needed to run the original

283 pulley setup on a 350 crank with a short water pump. The stock 1966 C-10 air cleaner sits on top with a Summit Racing flat base and a GM L79 327 filter element. Before bolting it in, the motor was painted with the original 327 green, and clear-coated bare steel 283 valve covers top it off.

The suspension has been lowered 2 inches in front and 4 inches in the rear using

CPP springs and a pan-hard

bar setup. Wheel Vintiques 15x8 smoothies are bolted in the rear with custom hubcap adapters, while stock 15x6 steel wheels ride up front with original 1967 C-10 hubcaps. “This truck is a reliable and fun daily driver.”— Thanks, Caleb. ST
