Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds
Well ........ I'm sure the purchaser was happy with what he got - I would have been!!
Nice two-tone also. That brown is the color of my 78 steppy all over. Ratty 46 |

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds
I'm gathering ideas & parts now ...... my 78 was bought from a nice old lady thats husband had passed 6 yrs. prior. It only has 89K miles & has been garaged since new. The glass is sooooo clear I can't stand it. I feel as if I'm in a fish bowl. It looks like the vent windows were never opened - no wind noise. It has late model add-on air & rides & drives super. I only need to add a lowering kit & a bigger set of skins.
As soon as my boy resizes pix I'll post them. It also has a "classic" like new plaid tan interior. Ratty 46 |

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds
Here is my truck. '87 with DJM upper and lower (3") controls arms, 2" drop springs, 355 with nice cam, modified TBI, 700r4, 15" Torq Thrusts, 235-70-15 fronts, 275-60-15 backs.
She runs pretty good. Next I'm going through the rear end (gears and a posi unit) and then she should almost fly! I would love to know your thoughts on my truck! |

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds
I want more specs on your tbi motor. heads, cam, intake, throttle body, fuel pressure.. etc etc etc... my 89 is highly modded. I love to see what others have done with these "junk" injection systems lol

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds
it has a comp cam 256 dual pattern flat tappet, hand ported heads by a head guru (i couldnt begin to tell you what he did) roller rocker and timing chain, and the 2" throttle bore tbi. i have a holley tbi, just need to rebuild it. i have a tbi spacer that was hand ported from 11/16" to 2" to help with the larger throttle bore.
yes, your right....worst flowing motor gm ever made. but with a little tweaking they go pretty good. |
