Re: Minnesota Daily Driver
I used the truck like this for a summer putting around 5,000 miles on it and quickly found out how tired the 350SB was. She was pretty much down to 6 cylinders and leaked out of most gaskets/ seals.
Around Thanks Giving 2010 I decided to install a 454 that my dad had pulled out of his 74 C20. I resealed and torqued the intake, retorqued the heads. Installed a new starter & alternator, put in new gaskets on the oil pan and valve covers, and had the carb rebuilt among other things.
Some pics from the 454 clean-up:
