350 invader
I’m looking at a 1971 GMC Short Bed truck with a 350 Invader motor and was wondering if all GMC trucks had the invader engine or is it something special?
I found some info about the CMC Sprint with the invader but thats it so far. Thanks DMX |

Re: 350 invader
I might be wrong here....but it thinks thats the loaded version of GMCs, where as the Chevys are "deluxe"

Re: 350 invader
It’s a Sierra Grand edition which I don’t know anything about. Is this the loaded version?
Thanks, DMX |

Re: 350 invader
Yes, the Sierra Grande is the loaded version. I'm not sure about the invader engine, but I'm sure that someone here will. Simply being a V-8 SWB Sierra Grande makes it special. What options does it have?

Re: 350 invader
GMC was calling all their V-8's 'Invader' in the early 70's.

Re: 350 invader
Yup, it's a regular old Chevy motor, nothing special.

Re: 350 invader
Thanks for the warm welcome from everyone; I don’t know much about these trucks. I pick it up Tuesday and the owner is sending me some pictures. I’ll post them as soon as I get’em. Things I do know: No A/C & Tach., & factory headliner. This truck is all original except drop spindles & springs. It also has some nice rims on it.
If you can think of anything I need to find out before I buy let me know. DMX |
