Re: lets hear those engines! 73-87 trucks!

Here is my '78 factory 5.7 Diesel. It still has the corvair turbo mufflers that were installed in 1979.

Re: lets hear those engines! 73-87 trucks!

The first part of this clip is the same as the first one I posted, but the second half of it also shows my 78 K10 with 3/4 ton axles and 412 small block running. I should have posted this clip in the first place but I forgot that I had it.

Re: lets hear those engines! 73-87 trucks!

Here is one to make your truck sound amazing! This is the first time my truck has run in over 7 years and YES it is running on 7 year old CALIFORNIA crap-tastic gas. I have a bit of work ahead of me.

Copy the YouTube link and paste it in the body of your post. Once that is completed you can do a preview post to make sure it works before you you hit "submit reply". *
I had to do it using my laptop, for some reason I couldn't the YouTube link to work using my iPad.*
