My shop is at Bethal Island. The guy there has an 83 short box that I am giving him $300 for. It has half of a I6 in it. I think the HEI is still in it and also the power steering pump brackets. I am using all of the suspension for under the 66 and all of the other stuff for the brakes.

Fellas, an 83 model truck will have an integral head six cylinder engine. The power steering brackets will not work with an earlier non integral head engine.

The HEI, however will work fine.
