New toy 86 Silverado project
Picked up truck after selling my old toy 84 El Camino. Was told it had a 305 but ended up having a 350 to my delight. Installed some rebuilt heads 882 casting and a edelbrock performer intake I picked up for $35, waiting on hedman headers.

Re: New toy 86 Silverado project
My plans for the truck are to paint it the original color scheme, add some rims and tires don't know what size yet. Looking to add some gears 3.73's, overhaul transmission (beef it up) add stall converter and shift kit. All of this work in anticipation for a stroker engine down the road. Keep in mind this all weekend work and money permittiing. Good thing I save alot of money doing it myself atleast the body and engine work. Going to have to farm out the transmission, rearend, and machine work for the stroker.
