Re: new ride! 85 c10

well some plans have changed around a little bit. my friend had a motor built for outlaw racing and found that the races take too much coin to stay in. so hes gonna bump down to enduro racing and needs to run a stock motor. so i traded him the stock motor that i bought to build plus 800 for his 500 hp motor. its a 358, comp roller cam, 12:1 compression, forged pistons, rods, and crank, high rise air gap manifold. ill be picking it up in the next two to three weeks. this trucks gonna be mean!!!
