Some good BS - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

This guy that lives around me has a pretty worn 71 GMC LWB w/ fact a/c, fact posi, and orig 305 that knocks. Well he finaly put it up for sale and i stopped to tak a look at. You can tell its 31yrs old and has the usual rust everywhere and a big ole dent in the bed. But any how to make a sale he was telling me how his edelbrock carb cost $500 alone. And the a/c and heater worked perfect (even though there were no hoses running to the core). He said hes beat z28 camaros and that one time he was cruisin around 85mph and a mustang 5.0 wanted to race him and he blew the doors off the stang so bad the guy though he had a race engine in it!

Some good BS... if i might say so myself.

305? That's one heckuva rare engine . . .

Good one!

V6 or V8? And what year did they stop putting the 305E in pickups? It was before 1971, I think.

Well check this out my 71 has a motor that was built at AREA 51 by these secret goverment dudes. If I had the right tranny (still being developed) I could lift the front tires if I punched it doing 60 down the highway...

**COBALT** · 09-17-2002, 04:10 PM

I bet he gained over 50 hp after he put in some high performance muffler bearings.

RED72blazer · 09-17-2002, 06:31 PM

I run performance blinker fluid in all my cars. It's at least a 250 hp gain!!!!!!!!!!!
