Welcome. I have a '65 C10 with a 292 and a 5 spd. Motor is completely stock except for the addition of HEI, headers, an Offenhauser aluminum intake and an Edelbrock carb and I just love driving it. Quick note on an easy upgrade for your truck is to install a later 90's Chevy truck seat. Fit in real well and very comfortable.
