My last truck build....
I have acquired an 82 swb fleetside that has some miles on it, but the body is very straight for a truck of that age. Gentleman that had it before me, owned it for 20+ years and took very good care of it. It started its life as a 6 cyl, 3 on the tree, no AC work truck and has been through seveal iterations since then, presently has I6 with tb350. In the deal I also acquired a 350 crate motor, in the past I had trucks with the M5 5 speed manual, and have recently purchased a donor truck with a 4.3 and the tranny I need to complete my drive train. I do have a question for the forum: I don't have the clutch pedal mechanism from the 82, but 85-87 had hydraulic clutches as does the M5. Is there anyone out there that has the pedal setup for the 85-87 manual? If so, please let me know and give a price. I plan to document the process of the forum, stay tuned.
