    New guy. Been hanging around Yotatech. Liked it there (still do actually) but they're kinda light on the pre '79 stuff which makes it hard to get answers for my '77 longbed. Though I did get info about the 20r head on 22r block hybrid setup which I built and installed with an EB cam and oversize valves.:waytogo: With tall tires and the 32/36 Weber I'm pushing close to 30 MPG (if I can keep the speed down!)

    I love this truck. Never thought I would have use for a pick up until I got one as a little runabout...now I can't figure out how I ever lived without one.:lol:

    As you can see, I really put my little truck through it's paces. Hauling not only 1300# of generator and trailer, but also a massive stack of closed cell foam insulation up to my mountain retreat.
