Truck is back!!! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Since Thanksgiving I have been doing a 383 stroker swap and some painting in and under the hood. With it sitting in a body shop for that long it is pretty trashed, so I have my work cut out for me. It's home now. Makes things a lot easier than have to drive 30 minutes to go work on it.

Haven't really put my foot into the stroker yet

.

3 Weeks till the 4Wheel Off Road Jamboree in Springfield, MO.

Congrats on getting it home again - that is a great feeling.

You'll be done, willing to bet on it.

Give us some feed back on the 383 when you get the chance.
I'm not talkin' about driving it home either.

(you know what I'm saying)
