I went to a benefit car show this past Saturday for a teenager with brain cancer, there weren't many awards given out. I wasn't expecting one when I went, just wanted to support the cause. I plan on going to another this weekend depending on the weather. |

Re: Project Vitamin C-10
It's off a 1989 S-10, I got it off eBay for about $150 if I remember correctly.

A coworker had a 600 eldebrock that ran really good on a 350. I figured what the heck lets see what it does on mine. It might have been a little better as far as low end power, but not enough to matter. So, i will put the 750 back on and adjust on it. I'll recheck the timing and advance even tho I have checked it a dozen times. This engine should just blow the tires off the truck. Very embarassing. Specs: 383, TCI 350 with a 2400 stall, 3.42 posi. Base timing 16*, mechanical 33* and vac adv all in at 2400 rpm and 52* total advance. |

We had our North Georgia Group "Chewin' the Fat" get together today. It's the longest journey for the truck so far, about 22 miles one way. The temp gauge likes to hang on the high side, but once i got home and put a lazer temp gauge on the radiator hoses one read 195 and the other was 160. I did stop once and just punched the gas and she broke loose really easy. ;) Wishing I did an overdrive tranny. Thanks to those that showed up today. Meet some new faces as well as old and talked trucks. :metal: |

Re: Project Vitamin C-10
Alan I've come to a conclusion, after searching your thread for the last hour looking for a how to pic..........You need to put together a index for your build, I know you have plenty of time on your hands :lol: since your truck is finished. ;)
