Hi all. New here. Been over on CK5 for a few years. Thought I would see if I can get to know some more local wheelers, and more importantly find parts that arent all out in CALI lol :thumb:
Heres my 85 K5, Put a 408 SBC in 2 summers ago. Prolly 3k miles on it now.
Last summer had a 700r4 Built by the best local guy around, also put a transgo stage 2 reprogramming kit. I love how crisp it shifts now, and I put the biggest cooler I could find with an electric fan pulling air.
Also has a 2500 RPM Hughes Lock up converter.
I play in the sand, bout it, some mild two tracking here and there, no mud.
The day after I bought it.
Build party with a guy from CK5, Kert from DIY4x was there and well after much liquid persuasion from the guys..... I got me some new stickers :sonicjay:
Then the motor started knocking, so I talked around and had a guy start building me a 400 he had laying around.
Free shorties I cleaned up in my bosses blast cabinet.
Scored 2.5" mandral exhaust from an exhaust shop for $80. Also painted the headers.
Got a new top, other one had busted windows.
All sanded down
All Primed and Painted
Engine Time
My Buddy helped and so did my lady.
Junk
Finally Got pics of the motor
