Would you know if that truck originally had an Olds diesel? It is in the right year range, and the Olds gas engine swaps were fairly common because the diesel engines had quite a few problems. Also, once you get it apart, would you please post a pic of the frame brackets for the engine mounts? I am just trying to find out if they are different from the normal Chevy frame brackets. The brackets that bolt to the block are almost certainly an Olds-only part.
