This has 350 with cracked #1 cylinder. Kid put Holley intake and 650 Holley carb on it but refilled with water!! Broke by water jacket! I bought a Hi output 350 out of 89 truck that came factory with a little hotter cam and headders. EFI but I am going to try running the Holley set up before changing the wiring harness out of the other truck. Buying engine from a buddy that owns a junk yard that drives each vehicle that ends up there into lot so i know she will be a runner. And rest of the truck is there because scrap is so low he hasn't crushed anythinv in months. So if need be i can get the harness or anything else i need.
Has anyone ever heard the factory headders on a chevy? Just curiouse cause truck has hooker headders with short, straight pipe into the very short thrush glasspack and a 2ft straight tailpipe. I know that is gonna be LOUD which was "cool" when I was younger but now adays I try not to bring any more unwanted (police) attention than nessecary!! X-wife does enough of that shtuff for me!! Will go out today and get some better pics of this thing today. I sent my 11yr old boy out to get my smokes off the front seat after towing it about 5 miles home with a chain and he could hardly get into it!
