Cammed my 91 STOCK BOTTOM END 350 on a SUPER TIGHT Budget!!!

- This is my 1991 Chevy Silverado c1500 with a few goodies in it on the most extreme budget!!!
Ok, to start off with, the short block is a 1993 caprice block that got rebuilt at a local machine shop. Stock 4.00 inch bore and 3.48 inch stroke. It's a 2 bolt main block with cast crank and steel rods with flat top hypereutectic (might be mispelled) pistons. With the stock cylinder heads on it, it had a compression ratio of like 8.5 to 1. I installed a Melling high volume oil pump and pick up from summit. The cam is a summit piece. The part number to that cam kit is SUM-K1103. It's the cam and lifter kit. It was the best cam I could afford that would work the the vortec head swap that I will get to in a moment. While doing the cam swap, I also replaced the timing chain and gear set with another OEM replacement just to be on the safe side. Once you in there, it's no need to put the same timing chain back on if you done put some miles on it.
Now to the upper engine components. The heads are a stock reconditioned set of vortecs I scored off of a 350 core from a guy I know. They have the stock 1.94 intake and 1.60 exhaust valves. Stock springs and Retainers.
The intake is a budget Jegs piece that is dual plane and high rise for better low end torque and throttle response. I added a open 1 inch spacer to increase plenom volume. This helps with runner length and bumps up torque a little.
The carburetor used to be a holley 600 cam vacuum secondary unit but, I swapped it to a rebuilt holley 650 with mechanical secondaries and no choke(which is horrible during the winter time). I will be upgrading to a carburetor with an electric choke soon.
The distributor is a unit from Amazon or eBay with a 50,000 volt coil and a tune up kit I ordered from speedway.com. it has the autolite 906 spark plugs and OEM hei stock style wires.
I think that's it concerning the main components of the engine. I pray this info finds you soon and helps you with your build. Be blessed✊🏾✊🏾
I love self built hot rods on a budget. I think it captures the true spirit of “souped-up” cars and trucks. I also respect you honoring your family. Well done.
Thank you do much! It's a bit tougher when you got a family to see about but, I keep my priorities where they need to be. These hot rods will always be here. It takes me way longer to save money for parts but, at least I can still get it done here and there. And I encourage anyone who loves hot rodding to keep pressing on!✊🏾✊🏾
I have the same truck and It's carburetor swap I put it at 625cfm demon carburetor I hade to put a new throttle cable and will not idel for some reason any ways what size stall u have
I know what you mean. Met my fiancé when we were kids and have been best friends since. I’m in my mid 20s and her father and I have been building hot rods like best friends since day 1. Man is in his 60s and has taught me things I’d never learn in my whole life time. We’ve done some crazy builds together and I wouldn’t trade a minute of those memories for the damn world. Everything we did was on a budget and he always knew how to make it look like a million bucks. He day he leaves this earth I’ll lose my purpose it feels like at least haha. But he always says if you know what you’re doing you don’t need to be rich to have nice things. Idk why but basically what you were saying resonated with that. It’s something I feel can make a boy a man and can make more of a difference in a child’s life than you think it could. I’m high as a mf so I’m babbling lmao
@@WorkingwithBobby and what I daily to this day is what we built and it’s exactly like this video
@@producedbysteez1402 thank you for the love and motivation! It's not so easy for us gearheads with short money but, eventually we make it happen and get to enjoy our cars and trucks!✊🏾✊🏾
Love the fact you’re keeping cool and period correct instead of most of these OBS chevy’s that have ugly new 20” rims and light bars etc.
Thanks man, I appreciate you! I am looking into some 20" muscle car style wheels for my truck since I've lowered it 3 inches in the front and 2 inches in the back. It's gone still have the old school vibe though.✊🏾✊🏾
Absolutely love hotrodding on a budget. Some people don’t understand what some knowledge, skill, and determination can do without breaking the bank
Yes sir! I totally agree! That's why I can't give up.✊🏾✊🏾
You did a great job! Love the chop, mellow and clean. I hope you know what said when you told us it's not finished. My friend, they are NEVER finished. In the spirit of hot rodding, you are a prince. Wanting to share and help others. Much respect for you and your ride! I wish you smooth straight roads.
Thank you for the kind words and the encouragement. I know there are a lot of people out there that struggle with this hobby as well as me so, I wanted to show that it can be done within your means. We don't all have lots of money or sponsors. Just patience, faith and time. Be blessed✊🏾✊🏾
@@WorkingwithBobby believe me I understand the people you are trying to encourage, I am one of them. Thanks again for being who you are. Helpful, open and understanding.
I really liked seeing what you're doing with your truck Bobby. And, the fact that you're doing this yourself over time is especially appealing to me. I'm in the same boat and was looking for info on the Vortec head swap. You've been a great help, thanks.
Yes sir! That's the main purpose of the video. I wanted to put together a video to help others that are trying to do the same thing im doing or better! We can do the hot rod thing too! It just takes us regular guys with families a lot longer since we have a spending limit! Be encouraged and keep wrenching!🤟🏾🤟🏾🔧🔧✊🏾✊🏾
Amen, may we all be blessed
You've done some nice work, sir. I know those Vortec heads and the cam really woke the motor up. I had a 1990 Silverado years ago. Loved it and wish I had it back.
Thank you! I did the best I could with what little money I had. Yes sir! It did wake it up. Now, im in the process of upgrading this combo as well. It took 3 years but, I finally was able to order a new top end to go on the still stock bottom end.
I love hearing the south Carolina accent feel like I'm home. I really like the way you mounted the tach
😁😁 Yes sir! Born and raised in South Carolina! Thanks, I'm trying to replace the bulb that's in it again since it keeps going out.
You have my love ,anybody with money can throw it at there car or truck but it takes a smart man to get to the point your at my hats off to you no matter what brand you like o like seeing this kind of builds keep up the great work God speed !!!!
Thank you so much! I'm glad to see there are people out there that can respect the little man with little money who can still build and create on a budget. ✊🏾✊🏾
I could listen to the sound of that truck all day!! Looks and sounds awesome
Thanks bro!
I'm in the same boat! I just replaced my heads on my 78.. it's a little overwhelming when you don't know exactly what you are doing but I thank God and people like you for uploading videos. I couldn't have done it if I couldn't do it myself.. money is tight but the good fight continues. Thank you sir for sharing your knowledge, I appreciate it.
That's great man! I'm glad you got it done!💪🏾💪🏾 I search TH-cam all the time for videos to help me do things myself so I can save as much money as possible. I am really glad I'm able to help soany people with my videos. I just wish I could do more to help others. It's more people out here trying to do things on a budget than it is the people that can afford to pay professional shops bags of money.✊🏾✊🏾
Good work, my dude. I spend all day trying to catch your vibe.
Wow man! Thank you so much! I really appreciate that. It didn't come easy. I am normally in a hurry to to everything. I had to learn to let God's plan be the best plan. I learned to be patient and let my beloved hobby develop on its own. I pray this helps you with your vibe and projects as well!✊🏾✊🏾
Sounds good man, I wish I had your skills. I got ripped off not knowing what you know from these shady shops so keep on doing what you do. Blessings to you and your family.
@@rayfordhickman3087 thank you sir! I hate you got ripped off! It gives us good mechanics a bad name. That's why I don't mind posting videos like this. There are a lot of people that don't know what I know and I'm trying to reach and bless those people!✊🏾✊🏾
@@rayfordhickman3087 with youtube,theres no reason to pay anyone to do anything on your projects..watch videos ,learn,do....
Nice rig bro! I just inherited a 97 C1500 RCSB with a 4.3… I’m going to keep it original for a little while but when time and money allows, It’ll have some real power! Thanks for the encouragement, we all need it!
No problem dude! That's what I'm trying to do! Just encourage folk to keep working and wrenching until we get it done! Good luck on your project! ✊🏾✊🏾
@@WorkingwithBobbyit’s coming along… doing a different build from the norm… gonna cam a build up a 4.3 I found from an S10 Xtreme with 60k miles on it for $300 from a buddy. Found a shop about 40 minutes from me that’s hoping me up with a turbo and cooler setup. It’ll take me some time to get it done with family and house duties but it’s coming along! Had a bench seat and I found buckets and a console for it. Hopefully me and my lady can be cruising by spring! I’m almost done with my 95 Tahoe 2door! I put in the same Summit cam you have and I’m running Holley injection and a Holley intake manifold. It’s a budget build as well on a rust free truck from Tennessee! Good to know there’s still some guys out here doing the same thing!!! ✌🏽
@WillCtheMechDrummer Wow man, that's great! I wish you the best of luck with your build and good job doing something different! I respect that! Be blessed.✊🏾✊🏾
Very good detailed description of the little things that need to be done to prevent problems as you go, and I applaud 👏 you for doing it yourself and on a budget I admire that. Enjoy your truck and God bless you
Thanks Gary. I'm trying to do the best I can with what I can afford. I also wanted to get the message out there that we little people can hot rod too! It just takes us much longer since we don't have a lot of money! You be blessed as well.🤟🏾🤟🏾✊🏾✊🏾
Your humbleness shows in this beast. My daughter is grown. Dinner. Toys get bigger.
Thank you man. I try to stay grounded and humble. I am by no means rich financially but, I try to make the most of what I have access to and encourage others that are trying this hot rodding thing just like me.✊🏾✊🏾
This is an awesome post. Love the way you keep it all in perspective with family first. Truck sounds amazing! Not too much chop…just right.
I have a 1995 C1500 that I’m about to start on a budget so your post really inspires!
Thanks Mr Fred! I'm always a family man first. No one or nothing comes before God and them. I'm glad tou like my truck and even more glad my video motivated and blessed you! I wish you tons of luck on your build bro!🤟🏾🤟🏾
Hell yeah. This is what hotrodding is all about. Working with what you got on the working man's budget and just being honest about it
Thanks man! I'm just a simple man trying to do what I can to enjoy what I love.✊🏾✊🏾
Love your mindset bradda🤙positive vibes...tryna do it to my 93 and juggling between fishing,truck,and family and work like you said 1 has to sit in the back
Yes sir!✊🏾✊🏾 Appreciate you. I understand completely. Gotta take care of family first. But, if you keep God first and in the midst of everything you do, it will come together. My next video on my truck will be straight motivation!
Right on brother. Priorities! Nicely done.
Always!✊🏾✊🏾
It looks, sounds and built solid for a budget build. Nice! 💯👊💥👍
Love what you’re doing with the truck. Sounds great and love that you’re putting your family first. That’s the most important thing. Building on a budget needs to be more common. So many people go into debt over a project and it’s absolutely not worth it.
Thank you! I agree 100%. Some of us have the want to and the dream but, our pockets don't match what we want to do. It's not the end of the world though, it just takes us longer to put a build together. And I will never put any vehicle before my family. Thanks for watching! ✊🏾✊🏾
I love this truck and what you have done! True hod rod spirit. Keep us informed. Most of us ate on that same budget my friend. You rock!
thanks george! i appreciate the love man. im doing my best to keep building her up! thanks for watching!
Great job I love the way it sounds I’m fixing to have my 5.7 rebuilt it jus played out the other day I think I’m going all in with it but I’m on a budget also wife and kids
Thanks dude! Just take your time and put God first. It will all come together in due time. This is a work in progress and it's never really "done" as they say. It took me 3 years to save up money for the parts I'm putting on next. Stay tuned for my next video of my upgrades I want to do next on my truck. Be blessed dude.✊🏾✊🏾
Hello,
The truck sounds awesome bro!
I admire your accomplishments. I know its hard to have a project and more importantly to have a family. Very well done my friend. Never change the way your doing things bro . You have a nice truck. I still have a lot to work on my 91 chevy silverado but you inspired me to continue. With very low and tight budget, yeah it's possible. Congratulations on your truck bro.
God bless you.
Thank you!
Respect my man. I appreciate the kind words of encouragement. Im glad my story encourged you to keep pressing forward. Good luck on your build and be blessed!
Heck yeah, i have a 98 obs. Its fun to work on and fix up. Thanks for the vid
No problem dude! Glad the video blessed you! ✊🏾✊🏾🤟🏾🤟🏾
Bless You Back Brother!! Nice ol Truck!!
I appreciate it!!!✊🏾✊🏾
I used a melling 22203 in mine. Its the same as an 1103. I love that camshaft , it has enough lope that you notice it and some nasty torque when you add 3:73 gears.
That's what's up! I didn't know that melling made cams but, have heard some guys talk about them here and there. That's what my goal is along with installing a posi unit in my truck. One day, I will get it done!✊🏾✊🏾
Love this truck, sounds awesome man! Just got a 1989 K1500 and I wanna make some more power out of it without breaking the bank.
Thanks Andrew! I appreciate you. And that's great! I've been saving for 3 years now and have been ordering parts here and there for upgrades. When I post the next video of my trucks engine, you guys will love it!✊🏾✊🏾 You can do it man! Just save your money and buy your parts when you can. It will eventually come together. Be blessed.✊🏾✊🏾
That cam sounds so damn good too
Straight Music to any ear!!
Got the heads off a van if you ever pulled heads out of a van you know this man deserves applause he really wanted them heads lol can work is a pain!
LOL! the engine was out already. He was about to take the core back to the dealer and I asked if he would seel me the engine for whatever the core charge was. LOL!
@@WorkingwithBobby man you got lucky lol sweet build I’ve only pulled heads out of 2 vans and god they where a nightmare can’t wait for more videos
@@April-r8b thanks man! I appreciate you! Glad the videos blessed you!✊🏾✊🏾
Sounds awesome man great job ty for sticking with us hot roders were a dying breed lol
You right! Us hot rodders gotta band together!
You'd think after working on so many of my old mans GM/Chevy trucks when i was younger id have one of these by now. Ive had a 96 F150 and a 2nd gen Ram. Might be time to get me my own OBS. That "Chevy Chop" is timeless.
You never get tired of it. And gone head and get you one. You won't regret it!
Blessed is the word family over material 🙏 just rebuilt my 5.3 Ls bored .40 over with a tune …
Yes sir! And that's awesome! I may go LS one day.🤔🤔
@@WorkingwithBobby Nooooo! lol i get it your prolly maken alittle more than a stock ls with all the upgrades... but man its only up from here... i think the fact that the ls has a stout roller cam and like amazing factory heads is really the only thing the ls has over the small block chevy. if you block is late it might even have provisions for a roller... that way you can use the factory roller gm lifters and do a roller cam on the cheap. Honestly though the advantages as far as power goes, with flat tappet vs roller is debatable and there are advantages with flat tappets like ramp rate that rollers cant compete with. Now rollers are more reliable due to the state of oil and the fact that the production quality is hit and miss. Let's not forget about solid flat tappets being great for rpm if you want to keep stuff cheap and don't care about adjusting rockers. The biggest problem with the small block chevy is cylinder head flow from the factory heads... up until the Vortec head. Another thing is the small block chevy center two cylinders exhaust ports are limited in potential flow due to the position being in the middle of the head and both cylinders having to make a 90 degree or so turn to exit. Notice all the best heads have the exhaust ports spaced. Anyway i could talk all day about this stuff. keep with the small block dude those ls engines arent cheap now anyway... everyone thinks they have a unicorn when selling those things lol
man that sounds sweet i have a 89 gmc with 350 speed manual and it is fun to drive.
Man i have a family as well and they come first,ive had a dream for years to have a cammed truck but it just hasnt came true yet and it stresses me out so bad sometimes because im not getting any younger and this world is getting worse,i recently picked up a 1990 350 k5 on trade,its my dream truck so ive got a start on my dream,i dont even know you but im very proud and happy for you,god bless you brother.hope to see some more videos.
Wow man! I am humbled by your kind words and thank God I posted this video. I had no idea that it was so many of us that want to do this but just can't because of more important things we are responsible for in life. Be encouraged bro! Everything will come together for you in due time! Keep wrenching! ✊🏾✊🏾🔧🔧
Bruh this truck reminds me of my childhood.
Praying that God blesses you real good! Thanks for the video!!
Wow! Thank you so much! I pray He moves in my life soon. It's rougher than you know. I'm glad the video blessed you!✊🏾✊🏾
Great work clean simple to the point, much respect on your philosophy do it when you can afford it and family first
Yes sir gotta do that!✊🏾✊🏾
When u said u did a head swap from a van motor I knew u know what u r doing sir! I just subscribed, love the raleye wheels!
I'm still learning even after 20+ years of car repair. Thank you so much! I love them too but, the tires are crazy expensive to me!😁😁
Thank you for the help ,info and just being a good guy. Need more people on TH-cam like you bud!
You are very welcome! I'm just trying to do the right thing and be a blessing to people. Thanks for watching!✊🏾✊🏾
Awe HELL yah!!! I got a 92 man...Long bed ext cab c1500 Silverado. I got it used from a guy that said it was rebuilt at 169k miles and trans also. Which I can attest that since I've never seen a Chevy 350 over 100k with NO SMOKE. Haha. It's clean engine and trans but it's sat now for a couple years. Battery dead. Thinking about fixing it up. Last time I drove it it smoked the tires a bit showing my son in law. The dude said when I got it in 2012 that is was rebuilt to a 383 but I cannot tell ....other than it's pretty torqued up. Never went over 90 in it as I am not about driving fast these day. Still TBI 350 stock if not. Killer video man!!!! Love these old trucks. I remember when we talked about old trucks back in the day but they were 60s and 70s. Hahahaha peace man.
Awe I got the stock big ass single y pipe ....I want to dual it and get it breathing too.
And I need them headers brother. Hahah
YES SIR!
Been looking at cams for my 92 k1500 I think you just locked me in 😂😂
You're gonna love how it sounds!🤟🏾🤟🏾
That truck sounds professionally built if you ask me! Bad ass👌
Thanks man! I don't know about professional but, I try my best to copy the guys I see on TV that I watch! They just have sponsors and businesses to help them. I have a much smaller spending limit!😆😆
Sir I really appreciate your time and I thank you sir God bless
I appreciate you watching. I'm glad my video blessed you!✊🏾✊🏾
Sounds great!! I just got a 92 k1500 stepside I'm gonna start working on.
Thank you! Good deal, keep wrenching and make it your own.✊🏾✊🏾
Good for you brotha. Puttin family first but still puttin something into your truck. That’s real 💯. I peep that Carolina sun fade color too lol
Thanks dude! It don't be much left after taking care of family but, I wouldn't have it any other way. Man, that South Carolina heat is straight disrespectful! 😆😆
@@WorkingwithBobby that’s spoken like a true blue real man. I have all the respect in the world for that. And you ain’t kidding about that Carolina sun either bro lol. I’ve had some of the worst sunburn of my entire life in less than an hour at the beach down on edisto island lol. Keep up the good content too man, I definitely subscribed to yo channel!
Nice man, I'm trying to give my engine some pep in it's step on a very low budget, and this is exactly how I want it to sound!
That's whats up and thank you!✊🏾✊🏾 check the description of this video for part numbers on what I got.
That's a nice sound! I'm working on a somewhat similar setup right now for my '88, though instead of a carb I'm retaining the TBI. I picked up some aftermarket Vortec heads, a GM Performance Parts TBI intake, and an EBL Flash 2 mod for my ECM. I'm running a nearly identical exhaust setup, and a Summit SUM-8800 roller camshaft. So far I don't have it back together yet to hear it run, but I'm looking forward to a sound similar to yours!
Sounds awesome! Let me know how it sounds when you finish!
Glad you took the time to show your ride
No problem Greg. I'm doing this to encourage others to keep working on their rides. I'm glad it was a blessing to you. ✊🏾✊🏾
Love this man. I have an itch to build a muscle truck and this is right up my alley. Great work.
Thank you so much! I hope you get started on your truck and keep going until you finish!✊🏾✊🏾
This is a super cool build and yes welding an exhaust is a difficult thing to do and as a welder I encourage you to learn it’s an amazing trade
Thanks dude! I try to do my best. I really want to learn! Even if it's only to do automotive stuff.
Used the same cam in a 84 longbed back in the day. Nice idle.
Your kids are lucky. Hopefully they catch the bug like you and you can teach them the skills you have learned. I have a c1500 suburban that I want to do like yours.
Thank you sir. I try to give them the best dad I can. I wish you the best with your build dude.✊🏾✊🏾
I love it! I would suggest or recommend getting a LT4 hot cam kit. I found on Craigslist a guy selling the GMPP LT4 hot cam kit for $200 so jumped all over it. This was about 6 years ago or so. But that cam in a vortec headed 350 would be about 400 hp. And very choppy exhaust. Love the truck and what you did to it!
Thanks man! I appreciate the kind words and advice. I've already ordered heads, cam and intake for the truck but, it takes me so long to save up to get the rest of the stuff that I haven't installed them yet. I hosted a video showing the parts. Check it out when you can. Thanks for watching. Keep wrenching and be blessed! ✊🏾✊🏾
I really like the sound of that truck. I have 1995 Suburban C1500 TBI, I wanna do some things to it as well... and hell I live in South Carolina too!
Yes sir! Nothing to it but to do it! You cam get it done. Just take your time and get what you need as you can. It will come to together in the end!✊🏾✊🏾
South Carolina in the house!!!!
Beautiful truck. Nice job. We working on my sons 95
Yes sir! Keep wrenching! 🔧🔧✊🏾✊🏾
Great looking truck and sounds good
Thank you sir!
Man
That sounds good !!
Nice job!
Thank you! I appreciate you. I'm doing the best I can with what I have access to.
Thank you for the video this exactly what people should do self built hot rod on a budget this really helps me push to finish my 78 chevy c10 ive got a 89-92 350 with 882 heads shaved and lightly ported to flow better and 305 aluminum intake and edelbrock carb as well i just done a 5 speed swap to it as well thank you for posting this video again this is a video the commen folk can relate to and take alot from and apply it to there project as well thank you n have a blessed day there sir

Yes sir! God bless you as well!✊🏾✊🏾
Thanks Brother, this was a Blessing to me
No problem dude! I'm glad the video blessed you.✊🏾✊🏾
Love it. Great work. Love to see a man pursuing his passion. Keep wrenching.

Nice car and motivation appreciate you brother 👺🔥💯🖤
Thank you so much! I'm glad I'm able to inspire and motivate people with what I'm doing. Stay tuned for my next video when the rest of my parts come in....✊🏾✊🏾
Thank you for explaining so well.
You're welcome!

Beautiful truck! Keep it up
Thank you! I'm doing my best!✊🏾✊🏾
Great video dude! This is much better than the high end outrageously prices restomods. You’ve got the real deal that you built yourself. Well done!😃👍🏼
Thanks man! I respect the high dollar builds but, I personally can't afford it so, I learn how to do these things on a budget. Then I try to share that same learning experience with others! ✊🏾✊🏾
Vortec plugs come with a .060 gap, HEI needs a .045 gap, just went through a vortec... your truck sounds good!
@@jacobnorth8642 I appreciate the info! Thabk you!✊🏾✊🏾
Just what I was looking for .....thanks
No problem. I'm glad my video blessed you in some way.✊🏾✊🏾
Nothing better than some GT Cobras on a 90s chevy. Good video man
I know! I couldn't find them when they wore out so, had to go back to Mastercraft for now.
Sounds like a tap dancing song 🎵 🥰🤣
Good music!✊🏾✊🏾
Goos work and great message. Proud to have stumbled across your path.
Wow man! Thank you! I'm glad the video blessed you!✊🏾✊🏾
Good sounding truck thanks for the motivation
Thank you so much! I didn't know this video would uplift so many people! I am humbled and blessed to be able to motivate so many people.✊🏾✊🏾
I had a motor that I put a big cam in. Sounded like that but bad vacuum. Hardly no brakes. It was.a junkyard motor. Had fun while it lasted. Got another one. May do it again while I think about going ls.
Thats whats up! Good luck with that and keep on wrenching!🔧🔧✊🏾✊🏾
Thanks for the video I'm in the same boat. Just brought a 94 GMC that I'm tearing down . I definitely going to use some of your ideas.
Yes sir Scott! I'm happy my video blessed you dude! I whish you the best of luck with your build!✊🏾✊🏾
Good job that’s what I’m talking about thank you for the video 👍🏽
Thanks Eddie! No problem! I'm glad I posted something to bless you and so many others!✊🏾✊🏾
Love the truck, she sounds healthy. I have a c1500 on my TH-cam channel I am also using as a daily driver.. in Massachusetts and it’s about to be snow outside 😂
Thanks man! I appreciate you. No snow down here in South Carolina but, it is raining. Be safe, Merry Christmas and keep wrenching. ✊🏾✊🏾
Thanks for taking the time to make this video great stuff!
Yes sir! Glad it blessed you!✊🏾✊🏾
Thank you for sharing this. I'm in the same boat as you and I'm just starting on a similar project.
No problem! I hope you have way more luck than me with this project!✊🏾✊🏾
Thanks for sharing this beautiful daily, I'm trying to get mine lookin like yours under the hood
No problem! Just trying to bless others! You can do it!🤟🏾🤟🏾🔧🔧
Sounds great, I did basically the exact same setup in my s10
Great! I know you enjoying that s10!
Hey man thanks for this video..muscle rides are not bought they are built..I'm from s.c. but now I live in Texas and these folks don't get it..my truck is a work truck and a daily driver and I've been doing the same thing you are doing and it reminds me of being back home..and it's a 93 Chevrolet 😁..thanks man from the bottom of my heart.
No problem! Glad my video blessed you. I respect both types. Weather you purchased it or built it yourself, it takes money that most of us don't have. You are very welcome!✊🏾✊🏾
Thank you for this I have a 1993 chevy s10 square body and I'm trying to put a cam lifter and stuff in it thank you for this video it's a uplift to see somebody on the same page godbless
Yes sir! No problem. This particular video was put together to encourage the little guys like us to keep pressing on to pursue our passion of hot rodding our vehicles. It may take us way longer but, eventually we get it done! Be encouraged and keep wrenching!🔧🔧✊🏾✊🏾
Nice work i have a 94 s10 with a 350 from a 95 truck and been thinking about going carburetor and a cam thanks for the video
Thanks dude! I appreciate you. That's sounds like fun to drive! I'm glad my video motivated you!
Just remember to keep enough rpm's to keep oil flowing well enough to lubricate the cam. Set idle speed with headlights on high beam and heater fan on high for load on all. Keep on trucken.....
😆😆🤣🤣 Yeah and I gotta make sure my carburetor fluid is topped off too!
@@WorkingwithBobby seriously lol if you look in dealer tune up specs on how to set curb idle speed that's what info you get I run a 406 in my 78 malibu with a 750 on it 270 comp cam with a 1800 stall it idles in gear perfect..
@@johnshaver5693 yes sir! That's sounds nice! I'm gone look into that as soon as I can. I'm always looking to improve my tuning skills! I appreciate you! ✊🏾✊🏾
Amen bro!
I gotta 91 Z71 step side...
I'm gonna do it ALL...engine..body work/small Crack fiberglass bed...And block it,,seal it,,paint it and lastly..stereo..amp..shallow woofers....Dig the CAM!
I saw one all done up for 18k....18k!!! Yikes
Wow! I applaud your talent man! I try to stay away from body work myself but, I respect you for being able to do it all! Good luck with your build and be blessed!🤟🏾🤟🏾✊🏾✊🏾
Bruh you had me at 0:33 I'm in the exact same boat. 1992 Sonoma SLE about to 350 swap.
That's why I wanted to start putting videos out there to help others man. I haven't figured it all out but, I know there are more of us who want to do this type of stuff and can't afford it than it is of the ones who got deep pockets and can throw money at their builds. I'm glad my video blessed you dude!✊🏾✊🏾
I love the truck sound great. I have a friend that has a 97 with 348 000 miles. he been having for years. I been trying to talk him into building a motor like that.
Thanks man! That would be a great idea! Hopefully you guys would have more of a budget to work with then I have so you can get some better parts! 🤟🏾🤟🏾✊🏾✊🏾
The cross over is nice.
Thanks man!
I've done this to my 92 minis the cam, and I slotted an older Edelbrock intake, plus added a transmission lock up kit. Works great. Nice truck.👍
Sounds good dude! What do you mean by slotting the older intake? Tell me more. Thanks for the compliment!
Man, budget builds is where it's at. Its nice to have shops to do the work, but like you said, she string budget with fam, gotta learn to do it on your own.
Truck sounds really good. You'll love that X pipe, better flow and sound over an H pipe.
Keep doin you man, and enjoy that truck, I know the kids will too in time.
Thanks dude! I appreciate you. I got the exhaust done after this video. It sounds awesome! ✊🏾✊🏾
You doing everything yourself
Yes sir. Only thing I didn't touch is the bottom end. It's a bone stock reman short block.
thanks for the motivation I'm going through the same thing doing what I can
I'm glad I motivated you dude! I'm praying for you! Keep wrenching!✊🏾✊🏾
Keep going my friend this might help Gan shroud is important to keep cool
No worries, the OEM shroud and fan are back on the truck now.
Ok guys, I have been getting so many requests on the build specs and parts descriptions in my engine that I got overwhelmed. I now understand that some may not want their email addresses in the comments like that. So, I copy and pasted the information I sent to a few others so everyone can see what I put in and on my engine in the description of this video so everyone can read it without having to share their email addresses. Hope this helps. Be blessed!✊🏾✊🏾
Thank you my man! Love the build
I was reading the description. I believe that flat top and hypereutectic pistons are different. Hypereutectic pistons are designed to come up past the deck and go into the cylinder head slightly for more compression. That's why they have the valve reliefs cut into the top of them so they dont smash the valves.
@@thehulkamaniabrother2.089 flat top pistons are exactly as described friend...they have a flat top(some have 2 or 4 valve reliefs) hypereutectic pistons are what the piston is MADE OF not what shape they are....(35 years in auto,machining,metallurgy)stock pistons are cast aluminum ,next are hyperuetectic,next are forged....it has nothing to do with the shape.....DOMED pistons stick up from the deck surface,flat top pistons are flat,dished pistons have a dished recess and lower the overall compression.
@@trillrifaxegrindor4411 no doubt
My kind of setup budget but sounds good, my goal is to get something oldschool on a budget, do a cam headers and maybe some other simple mods and just have a nice weekend driver
Glad you like it!✊🏾✊🏾 I wish you the best of luck on your search on an old-school and build! If I can do it, so can you!!!
Thank you sir for posting this video alot of people with a budget and works all the time should see this video it really helps to motivate me to finish my 78 chevy c10 short box i swapped a 92 5 speed and i also have a 89-90s 5.7 with 882 carb haeds shaved and lightly ported with a 305 aluminum factory intake that is awesome with edelbrock 650 carb and long tube headers your build is similar to mine as far as motor goes just stock bottum end built on a budget 350 lol thanks again for the video this is a very awesome truck and cool video for the common folk to see how a budget built hot rod is done hope to see more videos soon
Wow man! Thank you! That was the intent when I made the video and posted it. We all can't afford certain parts at the drop of a hat but, us budget minded people can save and buy here and there to get our projects up and running. Be encouraged dude and keep wrenching! ✊🏾✊🏾
Very nice. We’re doing the same thing with my son’s 76 C10 One piece at a time 👍
yes sir! i hope your build continues to progress! keep wrenching!!!!!
Great job! Thank you so much for posting this video! I hope you have a wonderful day!
Thank you! I appreciate it. I'm glad the video was a blessing to you. You have a wonderful day as well.✊🏾✊🏾
Good job with the flat tappet cam. Lots of people shred them to hell in the break-in. If I move to SC soon I'll teach you how to weld.
Thanks! I went to vocational school with a guy named Dylan Lee! Yeah, you really have to be careful not to over tighten the rockers and used the correct break in oil or zinc zddp additive or you will kill a lobe quick! That's a bet.✊🏾✊🏾
