Official New Guy Post :D
Yeah, I've been a member for a little while, but I've never done an intro post. so I guess I'll do it now.
Name's Tim, 20 from Central California. I got a 75 Cheyenne ½ ton SWB. My dad bought it brand new in 75, with the silverado trim package, 12 bolt rear, Power Steering, and Heavy Duty Brakes. It has 175k miles on the body, but spun #8 rod bearing last year. I just put the new 355cid motor in ($1200 out the door with a 4 year/40k mile warranty!) I'm slowly modifying it for maximum tightness. So far it's got: Performance: -355cid Short Block (9:1 Compression, #163 Heads) -ARP Hardware -Edelbrock Performer #3701 Intake Manifold -Holley 600cfm 4bbl #80-460 (Smog Legal) Carb -Custom Cam (200º/.400 lift 114LSA) -Heddman 1 5/8 Long Tube Headers #69097 -True Dual 2½" S.S. Exhaust with Dynomax Race Bullets Appearance: -Eagle Alloy Series 212 17x9½ Rims (5½" BS) -Kumho Ecsta Supra 711 255/55 tires -DJM 3/5 Drop Kit (Spindles/Flip Kit) w/ Doestch Tech Shocks -PST Front End Kit -Rear Sir Michaels Roll Pan Future Plans: -Eaton Posi w/ 3.55 gears -Paint Job -16 Gallon Fuel Cell ![]() P.S.- I haven't gotten a chance to put the front end drop on yet, so here's a pic for now: ![]() |
