big_al_71 · 02-15-2012, 11:39 PM

my version of a working weak engine..

Livrat · 02-15-2012, 11:59 PM

Here's the 468 in my 68 GMC 4X4, its getting close to having 100k miles on it for the second time.

**KevsClassics** · 02-16-2012, 12:26 AM

Here's my Blazer when it was a tow rig.

PHAT TONY · 02-16-2012, 12:27 AM

Livrat I bet you know where a gas station is!

**allchevy58** · 02-16-2012, 12:32 AM

Here's mine when I bought it, no pictures since I used 8 cans of Engine Gunk and pressure washed. You can see a nest by the dist.

MYGMCANDME · 02-16-2012, 01:54 AM

Here is the original 307 ci V8/3 spd combo in my '68 shop truck (ROTROD) before, during and after pulling it out. Gotta love all the dirt dobber nests. According to the previous owner, it has somewhere around 330,000 miles on it??? Going back in with a 350 ci Corvette engine and NV3500 5 speed.

sanford66 · 02-16-2012, 02:04 AM

Here's a couple of pics of the 68 and 72 trucks i used to have. I don't have any pics of the current 72 i'm driving now. Guess i need to get some. Joseph

Great thread! The motor is why I saved the truck. It was a great work truck for me back in the day.
