Yeah its all about a risk, the guy I'm getting my cam from is a board member, his cam only has 100 miles to it, so its like it's just broken in. So I shouldn't have any issues with it.

Wiring harness, will be checked off the list this april first.. old Engine and trans givin away. check. old engine pulled and truck prepped? will be this up coming month.

Re: 78 silverado stepside her names 'Quicksilver'
well heres some pics of my truck and his. His s10 is has a TBI 350, flat bed with harley davidson wrote across the bed. He put his own bowties and chevrolet decalls on it. The s10 truck has P290/65s in the rear on 15X10 rims. which he wants to swap with my carburated 350 in it. I told him mine sounds kinda choppy at idle. I believe it has been cammed up. I gave him all of my old GEN 1 parts, because i have horded so much. In return for the 350 i have been given something you will all drool at

Re: 78 silverado stepside her names 'Quicksilver'
well this is the first time ive seen my truck without a radiator... This HAS to be done soon, cause if the 5.3 aint running buy a certain time the truck will be towed.. lol... so im gonna get 745 dollar check which i was hoping to spend on used step side parts and just get me a stand alone harness and flexplate from summit. ill also need tranny fluid, engine coolant. a new water hose to reach the neck on the other side of the engine...

Re: 78 silverado stepside her names 'Quicksilver'
I also want to thank everyone who has watched this build and watched me humungulate on different problems and how to solve the issues at hand. and how it effected the way the build would turn out to be.. id also like to give thanks to those on this very board who shake sticks at those who say "that cant be done" what cant be done will be done, just to show people it works. I gotta say alot of members, surprise me, saw all sorts of defying things on this board. on this forum. and the lot. cant say i wasnt impressed with everyones builds or built chevys, even if they didnt have a chevy engine, or a V8. the thing is, i respect those who love these trucks and explore the possibilitys. Of coarse, none of us would have had one of these trucks, if we didnt imagine driving one...
