Newbie in South Dakota
Howdy! I'm here to do some research on building my GMC Drag truck.

Re: Newbie in South Dakota
Welcome from Rapid City, Scott! I'm not much help on the drag racing thing, My GMC's are more "survivor" trucks. There should be plenty of information here to help you get this project on the track.
If the truck still has the V-6 in it you can dump it off here rather than scrap it! DAC

Re: Newbie in South Dakota
Small world, I didn't expect the first reply to be from rapid city! It has an I6, runs and drives, but my father is getting the engine. What do you mean by "Survivor"?

Re: Newbie in South Dakota
This one definitely won't be a survivor! The picture is in Box Elder.

Re: Newbie in South Dakota
Lobes are kinda pointy. You need big fat wide ones
Oohhh, I got an idea. Build the oddball 348. A 400 with a 327 crank.

Re: Newbie in South Dakota
I don't have a 400! This is a large journal 327. That is the cam I just ripped out of it, not the one going in!
