sorry the pics are crappy

Nice truck! looks like its in great shape. Curious though. What year was the white truck? And also what made you decide to replace it with the 83? Im not saying its a bad choice Im ALL for it but im just curious if it was because you wanted the older model or just cause there was something wrong with the other one. Just asking because the white truck also looks to be in really good shape :)

HOLY CRAP!! NICE TRUCK!
Thats exactly the one I want! Beautiful color.

i love the white truck, its a daily driver, i want a daily driver with the straight axle and maybe bigger tires, so i went with the 83 cause i got it for only 600.

im sure i got it at the price you want too....:hillbill:

looks like a great deal!

Al

your in bend? I can be over with $600 to give you for the 2nd gen:hillbill:

hahahah nahh its worth a little more than that. plus i need to get some project cash outta it ya know?

so today the snow started to melt so i decided to clean out the garbage in the bed of the truck and put in my prp seats (still need to do that) but anyway heres some pictures of the truck cleaned up a bit. getting ready to pull the motor tomarrow.
with out further a due heres the cleaned up truck pictures:
i pulled all the crap out of the bed and found there is no dents or even scratches in the bed

this truck is making me happy. :D

started taking my 22r out and the intake looked like there was a bit of carbon build up....

tomarrow im going to finish the pulling of the motor out then start to disassemble i know this isnt any thing special but i have some secret plans for this 22r...:banger::banger::banger:

Nice!!! That thing is super clean. Put short block 22r in

actually im going to build this block up, wanna go maybe 50 over, radical cam bigger valves weber and header. i dunno what else i could do... any suggestions?

i've heard to only go 40 over on these... put on a 20r head?

im searching for a reasonable priced 20r head, no luck though... free is good.:bigok:

Oh thats cool. I've got both and the short block is way more fun but if you build it up it will be pretty badass. Cam, headers, Weber progressive

yeah im just gettin a kit from engnbldr.com with rv 2 cam, ive got the carb and headers but dang this motor is beat ill post pics its like somone went in and tryed to rebuild it halfass and ended up just fixing it enough to run. lol its going to be interesting.

posting pics later tonight

as i said in my last post "this motor is beat" seems to be true.

its about the thickness of 2 dimes deep....
time to tear a new motor apart with a little more luck tomarrow i suppose:bigok:

update
 

damnit its raining outside, im in the middle of putting 4 inch leaves under it and im cold...

but on the up side, i think i got a possible score from a friend. dual mikunis for hella cheap but i wanna know a bit about these carbs, anybody running them?

Damn that cylinder wall is crazy.

haha the bad thing about it is thats the only wall thats bad. the other 3 are withen stock specs and they look great. such a disappointment.
