Newbie from Utah
I bought my 85 C10 Long bed from my father in law. Im excited because the body is in great condition. But the engine leaves quite a bit to be desired. Glad I found this site I need help with ideas as well as where to start with the engine. Any input would be appreciated.

Re: Newbie from Utah
 to the board from Mid-MO!!!You'll find this place to become your second home.  There are several areas where you will find information on rebuilding/installing a new motor for your truck. Check out the 73-87 Message board and the Engine/Drivetrain part of the board as well. Best of luck!
