Re: 1965 1/2 C10 Pickup
All 1966 up trucks have spid sheets and protecto plates . Looks like this subject is dead anyway, salty only wants to show his new cam for his 1966 with a corvette engine or whatever?

Re: 1965 1/2 C10 Pickup
All 66's came with a SPID on the glove box door. Though it seems impossible, I'd actually love it if Salty can prove us all wrong and show a SPID sheet confirming a unique engine. These stories surface every now and then, and true or not, really stir things up! Here's hoping!

Re: 1965 1/2 C10 Pickup
My truck had no SPID in glove box. Will take picture next time there to show you. People can call me what they want but it came with Roller Cam unless a Martian put it in while in transit from the factory.

Re: 1965 1/2 C10 Pickup
While we're waiting...I don't have a SPID tag in my '65 glovebox...?
Did previous owner peel it off or was '66 the first year it was added? I'll take my answer offline...thank you! |

Re: 1965 1/2 C10 Pickup
I will not waste my time taking a picture of the glove box because you would not believe anyway and would say that i removed it. You are welcome to come and see the truck yourself and i can discuss it personally with you.

Re: 1965 1/2 C10 Pickup
He wont show his glove box door and we all know why. He wont have any documentation and we know why. He has a new cam for an engine that we dont even know it's a 65 or 66 or not it's just "confirmed" by the unicorn wrangler.

Re: 1965 1/2 C10 Pickup
Does that "1965 1/2" still have the original CD player in it?? haha.. jk.
Another thing that's odd to me is the "1/2"... I thought that was only a Ford thing to have half year models. According to the GM facts, roller cam engines didn't come out until 1996 when the vortecs came out. Good luck with the restore... it's a dam nice truck whatever you want to call it.

I ordered a Truck 327 engine. My engine has Camel Back Heads and 1.94in Intake valves as well as the Roller Cam. This was not in the 327 Truck engine so you figure it out. Obviously they did not install the regular Truck engine. Why i do not know. I can only state the facts as i know them. That is why i am asking for help. At nearly 80 years old i do not have need to impress anybody. |

Re: 1965 1/2 C10 Pickup
Could it be you had some work done on it at some time that you may not remember?

Re: 1965 1/2 C10 Pickup
Here is a pretty good magazine write up on the L79. It states the factory cam shaft that was used was part# 3863151 which is a flat tappet cam? Decide for yourself?

EDIT: Just looked it up. All 87-up passenger car 305 and 350, (and the 4.3 V-6) came with roller lifters. Trucks didn't get them until 1996. Last edited by maydaymike; 09-11-2017 at 10:29 PM. |

Re: 1965 1/2 C10 Pickup
Some may be coming across as rude, but others here look like they are trying to help you resolve your questions. Sometimes odd things happen. Sometimes we forget things that happened 50 years ago.

Re: 1965 1/2 C10 Pickup
Very interesting truck. This all reminds me of a 1956 Chevrolet 2 door hardtop Belair that my older brother purchased from an elderly lady that lived near us back in 1968. This car was incredibly loaded. It had a very hard white perforated headliner with chrome strips between each panel. It also had power windows, power front seat, power brakes, and power steering. I know I was just a kid and thought it was odd. But had I known that all these years later, I still have yet to find one person that believes me, especially about the headliner, I would have taken photos. I have tried for years to have this confirmed by someone in the tri five chevy clubs, and no-one has ever heard of such a thing. Until proven otherwise I stand by this owners claim.

Re: 1965 1/2 C10 Pickup
Just like he special ordered no documentation.
a. I "know" gm didnt even have an engine like this even for their racing program. 1. But little Johnny could get one. b. He has no documentation that for sure would prove otherwise. c. The 60's and 70's were too good to some people.
