Had to bust a U-Turn on this one!
I went to a gym down here in NM today and saw this on my way back. I had no choice as a self respecting chevy truck fan but to flip a Uie and check it out. I only had my phone with me, but I know the rules here; any pics are better than no pics. Turned out he had quite a little collection behind the shop, some of which are for sale. The shop is called "Big Time 4x4" in Rio Rancho NM. Check it out:

Looks good, and looks like he's going to turn out a few more projects here pretty soon.

Re: Had to bust a U-Turn on this one!
The cad motors generally get better MPG than the chevy engines do.

Re: Had to bust a U-Turn on this one!
I asked the guy what it was yesterday and he said it's a bored/stroked 454. I don't know of any standard bore/stroke that would make a 454 into a 472. A standard 4" stroke plus 0.90" bore will net a 473. Maybe he meant 482 with a stock 4.25" bore and a 4.25" stroker crank... Either way, it's not a caddy.

Re: Had to bust a U-Turn on this one!
Frizzle Fry,Cool pictures, I thought this would be in Oregon when I saw you had posted it, So I would have to do a drive by but NM is too far for a drive by. I like your met list, May I borrow the idea from you?

Re: Had to bust a U-Turn on this one!
Frizzle Fry,
Since you are only here for a couple more weeks they are having a swap meet on Sunday the 4th at the University of NM tailgate parking lot east of the football stadium. Maybe you can swing by and check it out before you have to head out? |

Re: Had to bust a U-Turn on this one!
Around 4-5 it starts winding down depending on turnout & the weather.
