Re: 1965 1/2 C10 Pickup
This thread is like a car wreck- you shouldn't look but you feel like you have to.
Nice truck. Good luck on the resto and enjoy it. As long as you enjoy it, whether it is a unicorn or just another truck off the assembly line does not matter. |

You are close enough to come and see for yourself.

Stop saying roller came from the factory, this is a fallacy that didnt exhist from GM at the time = Impossible! Only ones available were aftermarket from Iskandarian (read that again slowly). Quite sure that GM didnt build and test engines at fremont (Detroit or Flint, but not fremont). Quote:
Building engines "on the side" is not GM testing factory prototypes, besides the engine was built in Flint, MI - Not Fremont! You can't get to the bottom of something that doesnt exhist. What would he see? A stock motor built in Flint, MI????? That's what you have!

Re: 1965 1/2 C10 Pickup
You better get educated. The parts man that ordered all the parts for the Truck has been in the parts business almost as long as you have been alive. He said this engine does not require a Cam Button. It came apart without one and will go back together without one. By the way, he has a hard time believing it came from the factory with a Roller Cam himself but said that he bought a new 60's car that had equipment that should not have been. He said strange things happened in the 60's and he does not discount it.

Re: 1965 1/2 C10 Pickup
The Truck was assembled in Fremont. You can come and see the Cam yourself and see if you can find any numbers.

Re: 1965 1/2 C10 Pickup
Okay, I have seen enough of this back and forth, name calling and fairly offensive behavior by some members.
I am locking this thread! If the original poster would like to post actual pictures of the said parts, PM me and I will unlock this thread so you can post them, otherwise things are what they are, correct or incorrect and life moves on.
