Yes, that's my engine in the picture. Somebody put some money in those heads. It's got screw in rocker studs and guide plates in there, also has 202 stampings on the heads so I suspect it's been machined for bigger valves

2020-08-28 03:54:43 UTC  

Nice

2020-08-28 03:54:49 UTC  

Has an old Hays breakerless ignition system in it that's been discontinued since 98

2020-08-28 03:54:55 UTC  

Wow

2020-08-28 03:54:59 UTC  

Runs on 91, has some cam lope to her

2020-08-28 03:55:05 UTC  

Never even heard of that

2020-08-28 03:55:12 UTC  

How long you had it for?

2020-08-28 03:55:21 UTC  

Bought it November of last year

2020-08-28 03:55:34 UTC  

What all have you done to it or changed so far?

2020-08-28 03:55:50 UTC  

I'm in the process of going through the drivetrain and suspension still

2020-08-28 03:56:07 UTC  

It's an expensive project so I can only buy parts for it every so often

2020-08-28 03:56:16 UTC  

Yeah I bet

2020-08-28 03:56:22 UTC  

Are you a big corvette person

2020-08-28 03:56:49 UTC  

I'm a sucker for the pre-smog era vettes

2020-08-28 03:57:02 UTC  

So, I guess the answer is kind of

2020-08-28 03:57:05 UTC

2020-08-28 03:57:22 UTC  

The C8 doesnt excite me tbh

2020-08-28 03:57:38 UTC  

I prefer my cars to be as mechanical and simple as possible, so naturally anything new turns me off

2020-08-28 03:57:50 UTC  

Yes

2020-08-28 03:58:08 UTC  

Electronics, to me, just add another annoying layer of troubleshooting

2020-08-28 03:58:11 UTC  

My car is a 2013 but it still uses an ls motor

2020-08-28 03:58:25 UTC  

Which is simple enough for me to do shit on it

2020-08-28 03:58:43 UTC  

I couldnt own anything that new

2020-08-28 03:59:35 UTC  

I too like simplicity and stuff that’s easy to mess with but I’ve got to say gm did it right on this one

2020-08-28 03:59:54 UTC  

Just cross your fingers that the cylinder deactivation system doesn't crap out on ya

2020-08-28 04:00:06 UTC  

Lol yeah that would suck

2020-08-28 04:00:40 UTC  

My eventual goal is to be as late 60s or older with my whole vehicle fleet

Like I said though, nobody really gives a rats ass about the truck

2020-08-28 04:04:22 UTC
