91 resurrection ( CAUTION- Chevy content)

Well, I picked up a 91 Chevy 1500 a little while ago pretty cheap becuase it had a cracked block

Sorry this isn't Ranger related,but this is one of the only forums that I like, so here it is.

My plan is to restore her back to it's original glory, with a few upgrades and mods along the way.

Here she is as it sits now.

The new power plant!

It's a 305 H.O. out of an 85 Monte Carlo SS. I took it to the machine shop and had them totally check it out and replace everything except the crank, which they said was in great shape.

It's board .30 over with an Lunati street/strip cam.
