7.4 = mo betta!
Finally got the scoop on the engine in the truck. I could tell it was a Mark VI roller motor (stock).
Found the old owner of the last time it was titled and he helped me with a title issue.
He bought the truck prolly 20 years ago. Had a 454 transplant already. But tired and leaky motor.
His buddy with a landscaping company had a late 90s 1 ton dump. That truck blew the engine and guy got a new GM crate motor out in at the dealer. Shortly after he junked the truck and sold the motor to my guy.
Guy estimates that the motor may have 20k miles on it when he got rid of it. And I’m pretty sure it got very few miles after he traded it in, based on the rest of the supposed history between that guy and the guy I bought it from.
Another bonus!
It’s no powerhouse but it’ll get out of its own way. And it’s clean, not leaky and big enough to make nice noises out the twice pipes.
