I really like the color, nice looking truck

Wasted Income · 01-25-2016, 04:08 PM

Gorgeous! Love the wheels and the paint. I guess that's kinda what my blazer would have looked like originally. The sun and years was not kind to that medium olive green

S-sguy · 01-25-2016, 05:28 PM

Thanks for all the comments guys and I will try to snap some more shots this week the weather is pretty nasty down here now. But I will get some

Very nice.
I just purchased a 2002 Camaro Z28 LS-1 with a 6 speed. Carfax shows 78,000 miles before crash. Was going to put it in my next 63 GMC build buy now she's going in a 72 El Camino. Will be fun. Had a LS-2 & 6 speed in my Chevelle that went bye bye a couple weeks ago.
Man, once you have one of these motor/trans combos you don't ever want to go back to old school.

Enjoy that sukka.

Thanks man and I know what you mean. I actually have 2000 SS with a t56 and love the car. Thats why I went this route thought it would be cool to have two of the same set ups. Plan on a getting a mild cam later this year in the C10.

tommys72 · 01-26-2016, 02:16 PM

Very nice!

jus2qwk · 01-26-2016, 03:21 PM

New_70'C10 · 01-26-2016, 05:09 PM

Great looking truck and it definitely looks like it was worth every minute of it.

Nice. I actually go the "Not Mild" cam route. Youtube "Saturday Night Special Stage 3" cam video. I put one in my last LS motor so as soon as I bought this one I ordered the same cam for it. Wayyyyy too much, but dang it's awesome. Tick Performance is where I get mine from. Added 40HP to my last motor on the dyno.
