85 GMC Sierra Classic 1 Ton Crew Cab

Well this build is not dead. Just very slow. Finished up school and got a new job so things may end up picking back up on the truck. Mr. Ryanroo was kind enough to send me a new water inlet for my truck seeing as the stock industrial one would not work. Got it all hooked up and looks like everything will work out fine. Just need to get some more bolts to hold the fan hub in place and then measure for a new belt. Also have to weld a bung into the side of the new water inlet so I can hook the heater up as well.



A couple months ago I was trying to decide of I wanted to run a factory big block radiator or try to fit a 2nd gen radiator in the truck. The big block radiator I had needed to be replaced and so I just decided to go with a new 2nd gen radiator and not have any kind of problems hooking it up. So far it is half mounted. Going to have to get the body and hood on so I can tell how much I can come up with the radiator. It is setting to low so I have not finished mounting it yet. And I guess I never showed any pictures of putting a dodge fan hub on this industrial engine. Didn't want to have to run electric fans, and the industrial fan is way to big to run on this truck.
