Agreed with @kennythewelder on the good help here and great info, always the first place I check for info when working on these trucks.

View media item 31981New member. Two weeks ago I bought this 350-powered '89 Stepside Regency Conversion truck from an insurance auction. It came with no keys and lots of little broken bits. So far I'm up to $100 in RockAuto parts and $100 in Pull-A-Part parts. The battery took a charge nicely, but the oil looks like chocolate milk and the pistons have achieved oneness with the block. No worries, I have a 9.5:1 350 with a .520 Lunati cam in the shop. If the block cleans up it will likely replace the cracked block in my '99 Suburban.

Nice conversion! It deserves a spot in the Custom Conversion Truck Thread: https://www.gmt400.com/threads/the-custom-conversion-truck-thread.42967/

That truck screams potential. Welcome to the forum.

That's a pretty nifty conversion truck. Would be pretty cool to get back on the road. I miss those days as a young teenager when those trucks were rolling around brand new.
