Talking Newbie here

Hey! Signing in from TN. I have a '84 pick up and I'm getting sick of the my car guys doin all the mods. If anyone has any advice for what to do with this I'm all ears! I want to try and swap the motor for a turbo one but I'm not sure if that would work. I have the carborated 22r now and am kinda stuck there. Let me know! Thanks Samantha- mechawelder

Welcome, you may want to try searching for 22r engine swaps. Do you plan on lifting it?

In the case of an EMP attack, a carb would be a good thing.

Welcome Sam!

Lots of potential in an 84!

I have an 85 and an 87.
