Re: budget beater c10 to k30 swap over build.

thanks . and no problem on the real world feedback . this is how we group of people stay informed and away from a product that don't work as advertised . or if the product is good we know its worth the buy .

the old girl is doing good these days . when i go in to town i grab atleast a truck load of mulch if not the trailer also if i remember to take it . with the timbren bump stops she is riding great down the road .

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

Re: budget beater c10 to k30 swap over build.

Truck is still going every day strong.

Few changes in the works . Got new stock front leads but hd option 4 leaf for the snow plow . Then rear gets the stock hangers back and the flip kit off . She is going down to about stock level now .

Got some extra 88-98 8 lug trims and caps and painted the rim's white . Then mounted some 265/75/16 lr-E Bridgestone blizzack snow tires .

Next was time to get the BIG BOY snow plow back in action again. So the 9ft FISHER was dug out . Blown apart . Old skin cut off . Blasted . New 3/16 thick skin welded on . Re-blasted to get rid of mill scale and get the paint a place to bit on .

Today was yellow paint day . Next is black parts and assembly the plow and new pins and rams .

Should be good to go this winter if we get real snow . Otherwise it was a fun rebuild and upgrade .
