92 Chevy Short Bed (My New Ride)
Well i got this truck about a week ago & i was finally able to get on a computer and post the pictures.
Well here is the story on how i got it. I went up too springfeild for a band comeptition, then when it was over we went out too eat & we saw a 1997 Honda civic for sale & we went & looked at it & put a down payment on it, since it was a good deal, then when we went too pay for it, the guy never showed up so we drove around & i ended up getting this: http://i362.photobucket.com/albums/o...edChevy015.jpg http://i362.photobucket.com/albums/o...edChevy001.jpg http://i362.photobucket.com/albums/o...edChevy002.jpg http://i362.photobucket.com/albums/o...edChevy003.jpg http://i362.photobucket.com/albums/o...edChevy004.jpg http://i362.photobucket.com/albums/o...edChevy005.jpg http://i362.photobucket.com/albums/o...edChevy006.jpg http://i362.photobucket.com/albums/o...edChevy008.jpg http://i362.photobucket.com/albums/o...edChevy011.jpg http://i362.photobucket.com/albums/o...edChevy012.jpg http://i362.photobucket.com/albums/o...edChevy013.jpg http://i362.photobucket.com/albums/o...edChevy014.jpg http://i362.photobucket.com/albums/o...edChevy019.jpg http://i362.photobucket.com/albums/o...edChevy020.jpg http://i362.photobucket.com/albums/o...edChevy021.jpg Some Specs on the truck: Good: 22" Rims 6" Drop in the rear 4" Drop in the front Has a flip kit in the rear on the suspension Air Ride suspension on the rear for pulling a trailer Custom roll pan, with custom flowmaster dual exhaust Hide away hitch on rear, covered by the Liscense Plate. 12 Bolt Posi-rear end with 3:73 Gears 3" Cowl Hood (Metal) Not fiber glass Rebuilt Motor & Tranny 40,xxx 700r Transmission with Four Speed overdrive Truck itself has 265,xxx New radiator, Hoses, racing plugs etc... 350 Small Block around 260 Horsepower Factory Paint New Shocks & Suspension all around A few More things to list but, i don't have the list of stuff with me. Down Side: Tyres rub a little bit on the fron when turning. Air-conditioning needs new clutch Minor Scratch's on the body, chips. Drivers side cab corner is starting too rust, already has a small hole in it. |
That is a pretty nice truck!
Is it a real 350 Sport or does it just have the sport grille? |
Thats a pretty nice truck! hope you ont have too many pot holes where you drive or your gonna bend the **** outa those rims.
|
congrats...nice truck...hope it treats you well...gotta love impulse buys =)
|
God I love that body style of Chevy.. looks absolutely great, minus those wheels. Too big, needs a lot more sidewall. A set of 18's would look worlds better, atleast to me.
Enjoy it, I'm wanting to get one myself.. thinking about going with an 86 or so 4x4. :drooooooollllllll: |
Is it just the perspective I'm seeing it from, or is that RPM meter mounted directly in front of the speedometer?

I like it, but sell those rims to the ghetto and get something proper on there. They ruin the look of an otherwise good looking truck
|
hope you got your down payment for the honda back

Also here are some engine pics, this is before the serpentine belt & idler pully were replaced & before i put the hood pins on it & cleaned up the motor. http://i362.photobucket.com/albums/o...kengine001.jpg http://i362.photobucket.com/albums/o...kengine002.jpg |
Where are the "racing parts?"
That's a stock 350.. looks like a 350 anyway, could be a 305. Edit: Went back and read the mod list.. 350. I see quite a bit of cosmetic work, and unless that suspension has been drastically modified, I'm willing to bet it's just a normal drop kit.. And the exhaust, yes it might add an extra 10 ponies if you're lucky, it doesn't even have headers. |
I spot a missing ac clutch cover!
|
Well its got brand new suspension on it (which is real nice), racing plugs & wires & a 700r transmission (Great for the highway) i plan on getting headers for it, but i need to save up some money, also i know the clutch cover is missing, just need too save up money to get it. :D
|
he said "racing plugs and wirers":lol:
|
Well got some more pics finally, well not alot but some more.
Here you go: Here are my god lights, hidden behind the grill. http://i362.photobucket.com/albums/o...dhummer001.jpg Random picture to prove its mine, also notice the foglights are hidden & i think you can see the hood pins. http://i362.photobucket.com/albums/o...dhummer007.jpg Look no more decals or tint opn the rear window. http://i362.photobucket.com/albums/o...dhummer008.jpg Only rust on the truck, getting a new cab corner after christmas. http://i362.photobucket.com/albums/o...dhummer009.jpg The hide away hitch. http://i362.photobucket.com/albums/o...dhummer010.jpg |
I love that hide away Hitch. Over all a nice looking truck, Just gotta fix that big hole in the cab.

Kind of an update.
Well i remember someone asking me if the truck was a sport or not and i don't remember what forum it was on, but whoever asked the truck is a 1992 Chevy Sport C1500, i was digging through the papers for the truck and found it, also my next objective is too find out if its a Silverado or a Chyenne. |
Found out that it is a Silverado, now that my Birthday is coming up in a few days im going to try & get some performance upgrades like, k&n breather & a performance module & a few other little things to dress up my motor & make it run a bit better.

Well I finally got around to taking some pictures of the stuff i bought with my B-day money for my truck.
Also I got my Liscense a few weeks ago too on my birthday. Here are some pics: Bought myself a Spectre Breather (14") http://i362.photobucket.com/albums/o..._07/002-50.jpg Magnum Performance Module( Given me about 40+hp, 5mpg better in gas & about 30ft lbs more to the rear) http://i362.photobucket.com/albums/o..._07/003-47.jpg Also some red windshield wipers that have two blades apiece, so there are four all together. http://i362.photobucket.com/albums/o..._07/004-44.jpg Also here is a random pictrure of my dogs, the black & white one is Duke & he is a inside outside dog (Austrailian Shepard), then there is Walker who is like 10 years old & is a 24/7 outside dog (German Shepard). http://i362.photobucket.com/albums/o..._07/001-52.jpg |
could you please get that dynoed? I Have lots of doubt that those chips do any thing.
With every thing I know about cars I don't see how a chip that goes piggy back with the intake temp sensor could do any thing to improve performance. The main use of the IAT is for starting the car and it does little once the engine is running. |

But ive driven it before & after the module & there is a difference, not huge but enough for only paying $26 for it. :D |
most of those IAT "chips" are just resistors and from the J-body forums, somebody tried out their 2.4 twin cam cavalier before and after on a dyno, and it lost 3 hp and some torque on the dyno, with the "chip". the truck's looking nice! i have the same breather on my blazer, the thing's huge.
