Still currently in purgatory. It runs, but......
I started working on the rear fenders over the weekend and managed to destroy my fender rolling tool. Once I get that done it needs exhaust. Then I can drive it.

one thing i will side with you on is that GM ruined the Detroit 6.5 diesel with bullshiat. solid engine at the core but when GM showhorned it into the trucks, they ufcked up. and its 3 things, the black box for the injector pump, the fuel pump and pump relay, and the vacuum pump to the waste gae that does nothing but sit there and be ufcking stupid.

nice. i still want a summer car. but then i bought another Xterra, and now i want an old retired semi tractor toy hauler....
If you like old trucks find a ford from mid to late 70s and put some work into it, a way better option in my opinion.

Movies and shows crack me up. I love good whiskeys. But always seeing these people pound 3+ fingers with no chaser and no flinch or facial movement is hilarious. Especially when it is shiat whiskey 99% of the time.

I dig it. It's either really early 90s or a deuce drive though?oh ufck... $4k on fb market place...
Ford and Dodge weren't any better. At least you could talk to and tune the GM EFI. The dealerships were lucky to be able to communicate with the pre-OBD2 Ford stuff.

I agree that the 305 was WAY under square and I think suffered for it but on the whole it's not a bad engine. Maybe not the best option for a heavy duty truck but for a standard 1/2t pickup, not a bad option.
The one in my 89 RS Camaro pulls down high 20mpgs on the interstate with the cruise set and a/c on.

That was only the second year of that body style in the 1 ton. Up till 1991 the Suburban, Blazer and 1 tons were all square bodies. The TBI 454 is a horse and I THINK that's a hydraulic 4L80 and not the 4L80E maybe? Might be mixed up on that.

Lots of folks don't care for it. I've always had a soft spot and the original bed was mangled from contactor use.

Too true. I can squeeze 15mpg outta mine on the interstate but it's got 298k miles on the poor devil. Gotta run 10W40 dino squeezins to have hot idle oil pressure.
The GMT400 is my favorite body style pick-up. Followed by the 67-72 GM but I needed crew cab with 3 kids.

I've been looking for a 454 truck to buy and do a transplant. Figure I should have the HP to go along with the MPGs. Maybe in the future..

I have 50 bucks. Right. Freaking. Now.
If the floor pans are not rusted out it would be a good buy. It has a dump bed on it so you could sell that shorten the frame a little and fit a regular be to it.
