This is an 84'GMC truck. I have had it since 1988 and it has served me well. The present engine is the fourth one, because of changes needed or wanted in the past. It started with a 305 and then upgraded to a 350 replacement engine, after about 80,000 miles on the 350, I put in the first 383 engine. That changed when we put a rod through the block running it against a Camaro---I do hate the 85 MPH speedos---we were in the "OH WOW" section at the bottom of the speedometer. Now it has a very strong 385 in it with a built 700R4. I don't plan on the rods giving out this time.
