Hey guys, 1959 shortbed fleetside apache owner here.
Had it since '05, been workng on it here & there but mostly cruising it around and enjoying it for the time being.
Planning to install a new 350 sometime this spring/summer
and also if money/time permits install an air bag suspension.
Engine specs:
Two bolt main 350 block - stock bore & stroke
EB Performer intake manifold topped with an EB 600cfm carb & 14" K&N air filter.
Mid-performance 441 cast iron GM heads
Corvette Ram Horn exhaust manifolds... not running headers unless I figure out a way to clear the steering box.
Engine internals include Comp Cams Xtreme Energy cam (mild cam nothing too special) Comp Cams brand hydraulic lifters, pushrods, springs, rockers etc all matched up for this specific cam.
Stock crank & rods, mid performance pistons
Here's some photos of what I got going on:
