Re: post your 67-72 4x4

Well a 292 is almost a 300ci so still get cubic inchs and quite a bit of torque from a large 6cyl, plus you already have some add ons so a good start, maybe for more power could upgrade exh system to go with intake and a better breather element and should pull pretty strong.

Its funny you say that the exhaust is already run duals all the way to the back of the truck with an X-pipe the only problem with that is whoever installed it blocked the fluid top up plug on the transfer case with an exhaust pipe so when I wanted to check the fluid I had to undo one of the header flanges and use a C-clamp to move the pipe over to get the plug out. So thats high on my list to get fixed up so I can keep an eye on the fluid level.

On the plus side is sounds fantastic and has loads of torque, the gas mileage remains to be seen haha

My 1967 K10
she has lots of work in her. still sitting stock height, but I put a newer front axle under her to get better joints and brakes, added power steering and brakes. currently starting on a 5.3 swap, because the tired old 350 I has a god awful noise coming from a rod bearing.

Love that last pic! Looks like your dog is wishing he was riding in the truck!

Picked up this very original and clean '71 GMC K1500 recently. Has a 350, 4 speed, and cool old cable operated Warn winch. Body and frame are very clean.

Re: post your 67-72 4x4

They are 16-in rims. The SPID tag indicates that the truck originally came with 16 in rims. The p.o. I bought the truck from got the truck with some aftermarket chrome rims, but was unable to find any original 16 in rims. He found some trailer rims which were, apparently, the same size as the originals, and that's what's on the truck now.

Re: post your 67-72 4x4

Here's our '72 shortbed 4x4. Prepping for an LS swap and some daily driver brake, suspension, and front end work, hoping to be done by the time March rolls around!

By the way, I've been seeing conflicting accounts on whether a stock-height 4x4 can be LS-swapped. Pacific Fab says that with their 4x4 crossmember and their low-height oil pan it will work great. Anyone have first-hand experience with non-lifted swaps?

Re: post your 67-72 4x4

Nice truck ikester! Is that stock-height with ~33" tires, or does it have a little lift as well?

Re: post your 67-72 4x4

Do you have new leaf springs, the 33's fit nice for stock height.

Re: post your 67-72 4x4

It has the original Leaf springs with new bushings all around. The tires are brand new so that might help a bit

Re: post your 67-72 4x4

It seems to sit fairly high for stock leaves to fit the 33's. Maybe had a good life without hauling too much to often. Looks like a nice project.

1970 K10 Stepside 4" Lift Built 350

I have had this truck for almost 25 years now. My 1st vehicle. I have taken this baby through the ringer. She started off as my high school beater, and spent many days pounding the forest floor. I lifted it and dropped a junk yard 350 in it. Over the years I started to see how awesome this truck is and how rare a nice stepside is. I almost never see any. Everytime I take this truck out I have someone come to it. She has been on the backburner now for some time. Kids.. Well, now I am ready. She is getting a heart transplant in a few weeks to the motor shown below. Tranny is getting sent out, and I am installing a new wire harness. I will post a bunch of pics. This truck is solid in and out. All new fenders, bed, wood floor, rails, etc.. When I say new I mean I did this build 14 years ago. My father in law helped me with the body and paint. Came out okay. I will have it re-painted in the near future.
