@GloryShineBand oh hey dude hows it been, the truck is much better since the carb was replaced, havent run it much this year yet, gotta wait till we start hauling manure to hear it in action alot
I worked for a concrete guy that had a 69 C60 dump with the 366.His dad bought it new, it never gave me reason to curse it. That hurt to say. I am not a bowtie fan. I have had a brand new Chevy Kodiak with the "Tonawanda Industrial" 366 leave me sittin. Only thing good bout that truck was the 57 ft. Highranger on the back! Lol! Really enjoyed your vid. The surprise you had that it started. Brought back some memories.
Sounds a lot better than my '73 F-700 with the 330 industrial motor. Runs like crap. Luckily, I have a 300 inline 6 in a '78 F-600 that I want to swap in it.
Yea Tell me about it. I have a C60 dump like yours with a 350 in it and a 76 C30 single rear wheel. After months of fighting with the quadra-junks I put Edelbrock intakes and carbs on them. They now have much more power and seem to get better fuel mileage. It was really worth the money I spent. I use both for my lawn service down here in florida. With the way people drive down here the old C60 sure comes in handy LOL
it would be difficult to say that chevy is the best truck ever built or that the 350 is the best small block ever built... as much as I like fords I will never say that they are the best simply because... I have owned quite a wide variety of vehicles with oodles of different motors and theyve all had troubles some from abuse and misuse some from general wear and tear... in retrospect I havent had any worse luck with chevys than I have with fords but its simply a preference... they will ALL break
we have a 1968 C-50 with a 13.5 knapheide bed on it, it was orginally a master mix delevery truck,so you can imangine what kind of life it had before, but its very dependable, and still in good shape
ours is the 7.5 omaha standard and I wish I could say the same about it... its eventually just gonna rot in peices Im afraid and the 350 is not even close to dependable... but on the other hand it does what it needs to most of the time so I cant complain too much
this one has a 4 bolt 350 in it ,was rebuilt about 10 years ago, pulled it out took in , got overhauled, brought it home, got it in started it up.low oil pressure, so they came and pulled it to town, had to pull it out, rear cam bearing, was drove in too far
huh nice... this ones never been opened up just threw it in in a hurry to replace the 366 (terrible motor BTW) and have been running it... sort of... ever since
this one has a 2 barrel rochester carb on it, its ok, not as good on gas as a quidrajet, but a lot less pain in the ass, im not a real big quadrflood fan
yeah quadrajunk is more like it... thats what we have on ours... Ive got a good autolite and a holley both 4 barrels but I kinda want to use those on my 390 projects
had a 1986 GMC pickup with a 305 in it, traded off had a 120,000 on it didn't use any oil, the only thing that honestly gave me trouble was the quaid jet carb
in my opinionALL carburated gasolines engines can be a pain in the ass, one nice thing about the diesel either it runs or does'nt, non of of this half ass bullshit
weak bottom end and poor head design as i understand never took the time to work on any of the three that puked on me... just replaced them with 350s or 305s... funny I dont know anyone whos got anything good to say about them... guess we're about 50% with the 366 then huh lol
Man I wish my folks had an old carbureted vehicle! I love fuel injection, but these carbureted things remind me of childhood!

chevy and gmc trucks are some of the best trucks ever made next to dodge. and 350 is the best small block ever made.
