1980 Silverado C10 “Big 10”

[Nick_R_23]

This was originally purchased for another project, but I found a better block I wanted to start off with instead, so this engine will now be used for the C10.

Donor rig was a 2000 Express Van



Engine out!



Engine separated from the transmission and heads removed





On the stand. Oil was a little milky, so head or intake gaskets were done.



Started teardown





Completely stripped down. Everything looked serviceable other than some light scoring on the pistons. Off to the machine shop!
