I don't wanna go through 958 vids to find it.....what's the end result?

[swrnc]

@CowboyPenner The end result isn't here yet.. Watch for upcoming vids on it...

looks like a great project truck but not sure if you knew but in the video you said the donor truck has a 350 well if it is the 5.3 v8 which most have then thats a 327 one good thing about chevy is when they replaced the 5.7 they went back with the classic 327 as a 5.3 just a little heads up for ya

[swrnc]

Thanks for the heads up on the cubic inchs.... Im just used to saying small block 350, it's a habit... Take it easy, Pete

[lonewolf7309]

Great vids Pete,

[swrnc]

Hey lonewolf---Thanks for all the great comments on the vids,,, Glad to hear you like them.... Pete

Im just glad your not some idiot restoring a ford truck.

[spiffydude16]

@jasonnissan1 correct... and the 325 wouldn't make a wart on a 327's ass.

[jasonnissan1]

@blazerlover25 325.1 not 327.....look it up. 5.3 is a stroked version of the 293 and both have NOTHING to do with a 327.

im helping my dad restore his truck (a canadian transport truck) which has severe interior/exterior damage,including a blown engine and no battery(rust everywhere, EVERYWHERE!) do you have any ideas?it also has a horrible paint job.
