1988 GMC C1500 - Z06 Package!

[0xDEADBEEF]

Having owned a C5 Z06 and a c1500 RCSB, I can comfortably say it will never handle the same. I love me some trucks on track though, so by all means go for it.

I want to make my old Dodge truck an all around build: street, strip, track.

Did some fiddling with this truck lastnight and a little today. Engine and trans are now out.

I have a $225 6.0 that I was told Ran. So while the LS6 is in machine shop prison, I'll go ahead and put it in the truck.

Stripped it of the van specific parts.

Decided to do a 100% brand new brake system while the engine is out. New stainless brake lines, hoses, rear drums, 100% rear drum rebuild, front drilled and slotted rotors, brand new dual piston calipers, wheel bearings, master cylinder.

6.0, 5LM60 waiting to be mated together, then degreased and pressure washed as a pair!

How long you figure until that morphadite transmission lets out the magic smoke?

I think it will turn its insides into gravel before it smokes.

I'm honestly hoping to drive the truck "nice" to work all of the kinks out of a new build. Just long enough to make it to fall, so the LS6 and T56 can go in.

When the Fedex guy drops off the rest of the Holley goods!

Only spent 3x what I paid for the truck.

God bless this Toyota cherry picker transmission jack!

Do you even know if the trans works? I didn't see a mention of whether or not the truck ran.
