Model: C10 Scottsdale Fleetside 1981 "longbed"
Engine: 5,7DX "350DX"
Transmission: TH-350 lock-up

UPDATED: 17. October 2004

NOTE! sorry about my bad english but i hope you understand :)

Now my chevy is in very bad shape. Engine is off and almost rebuilded.
Tranny is also checked and repaired. This pick-up was my daily driver and
now i want to change it to summer sunday driver :) ....so Engine, Transmission
and torque converter is for sale!

Costs for this far: 1700+Euros (with receipts)+ pistons 395Euros + all gaskets and bearings what you can see in picture above (16th picture)(lost receipts) + 500Euros for tranny.

TO DO LIST:
Next thing is to find 350 TBI/TPI or 454TBI engine with tranny and things.
And because this is 2WD pickup it must be lowered :) so here is the answer

New front grille and lights from -90 suburban or so.

things what is done:
    - Block checked and overbored
    - Crank, cam, ...all other parts are checked in machinery shop
    - Heads (D3B) fixed and planed (fixed= changed some parts but dont

    - ARP main and head studs
    - Milodon chrome-moly oilpump shaft
