1965 f100 help?
Hey guys!
Glad to say my 65 f100 will be getting alot of love here real soon. Plan on re doing her bumper to bumper. I was looking at new truck prices and thought dang if I'm going to spend that much money I might as well ride in style! I threw a rod in my fe 352 about 2yrs ago and she's been sitting since. I have a donor short block I plan on going through. She's a 3 speed on the tree but I definitely could some advice on a number of things.
1. I had a high performance cam in it. Thinking about going to a more mild rv cam, as she will be my daily. (Good/bad decision?)
2. I want to do 4 wheel disc brake conversion, p/s, and a positrack rear end don't know what year truck would make a good donor.
3. I'd like to get hardened valves and seats. Better to just swap heads and if so what year?
4. I'd like to put a c6 in it. I had a bad motorcycle accident and one of my legs just doesn't work the same anymore.
any advice is appreciated thanks guys!
