looks like they didnt change the oil much , for a daily driver could have gone another 100k with the right maintenance , but it was not going to hold for what im doing , im just gona build it up right to hold more boost of what i had planed , i think im going to try to hit 4 digits on the hp !!!!! lol

Re: 1971 c10 stepside

Nice progress on the motor tear down. I found out the same thing on the balancer puller a few years back. I would love to have a lift like that too.
Can't wait to see this one come together.

Re: 1971 c10 stepside

That should bring that 4 banger to life....LOL

Are you using standard rocker arms or a custom ratio to increase your lift?

That lobe separation is a few more degrees than I would have thought being a turbo motor. But what do I know.

Can't wait to hear it. One more piece down, thousands more to go.

Great work as usual.
