BTW-does your '79 Sierra have a 292 motor? They are towing monsters.
No, mine actually had the 250, LV. But it pulled well enough (I've always heard that about the 292, as well.)
I actually just sold my 79 in May. It was all original and only had 103K original miles on it. I mean, I'd replaced some things like the clutch, pressure plate, etc., and then put the shifter on the floor (the column locked up on me in a tight and I was forced to for the sake of time), but that truck was in great, great shape.
I have an 89 F-250 with the big 7.5L now (I had to get something I could resort to for the fifth wheel I live in when the time comes to move). I'm actually in it for a bit of work, as it turns out one of the head gaskets is going on it between 1 and 2. It's a monster, though. (My daily driver is a Ranger with the V6.)
