my 86 Silverado
« on: February 14, 2010, 01:54:32 PM »
well last summer i bought this truck as a daily beater and just because i always loved those style trucks. When i got her it had a camper top aluminum running boards bug shield and only 82k on the clock with a tired 305 and swaped inth350 3.42 gears front and rear. well now ive removed the old man running boards topper and bug shield repainted the rallys black and now has a freshly built 350 with a summit racing th350 trans and 2800 stall. motor is nothing crazy 350 bored .040 slightly dished piston(guy who built it was gona boost it) i used 53cc heads and got the compresson up to around 9:4.1 and put in a eglin cam 214/224 112lsa and some longtubes. the carb still needs some work it keeps loading up. here are some pics and a video.

Nice truck! Looks the same as mine, except I have a GMC. Mine had the topper too which I ditched, but man did it ever save the box!! If I can find some pics I'll post them up - mines a 2wd though but I still stuck a set of 31x10.5s on those stock rallys.

Cheers!

Nice truck, that black and red color scheme is one of my favorites.

I like it too but when it gets repainted it will most likely be a solid color just to get it finished faster and to make it easier on me.
