Re: Sparky's 1978 Silverado Build "Addiction"
you got a good jump on that harem you must be starting! Question: It seems like you've been non stop on these builds for a good while now......still enjoying it? I'm on the other end of the spectrum, still in a holding pattern, wrapping up my concrete pour to build a small shed to free up some space in the garage so I can start my own damn harem!

Re: Sparky's 1978 Silverado Build "Addiction"
Finally found a build thread. Been lurking on IG. I’m Mac’s Garage. My 73 has a 350/700r4 but built that engine when I was 14 and it now burns and smokes a little oil. A customer of mine has a 5.3 I pulled out of a rolled over truck we parted out. 120k miles 4x4. So I’d have to get trans shaft and tail housing swapped for a 2wd. But my question is on your intake. Is it using the factory truck injectors?? Nice truck by the way man.

Re: Sparky's 1978 Silverado Build "Addiction"
Truck is looking good.
How can I get one of those Home Built C10 stickers as shown in post #428?
