    Need help identify my BB

    Yes sir and unfortunately what I know now didn't help for what I should have known then. I used to scrap metal for a living in early 2000s and I cant tell you how many 10-50k BBC, BBF and BBM we scraped and over half of them were running fine. I think the one I kick myself over is the 83 model...

    Again thanks pduffyd for everything, I think we're both lucky to have a early BB. Seems there getting quite rare around here, or at least ones that haven't been machined to death. Or not capable of even running. Good luck and Rock On brother!

    Thank you pduffyd for all your research on this your awesome.I agree the engine very well could have been replaced at one time or another. I do have some interesting info on it though. My great uncle worked for GM from 73-92 and has past since but while talking to his son about the truck a...

    Also if anyone wants to chime in on the sleeper on this truck would help too. What gets me is how well the construction is on it, ie how it's mounted to the frame and to the cab. Also what's really interesting is the truck and sleeper (notice there the same color) appears to have the original...

    I'll have a look under the seat but I've never known of there being any under there. I've got a pic of the RPO codes just shocked they were still there. Thing about Texas these ranchers around here don't care about that stuff if it falls off while cleaning there glove box out every 10 yrs sadly...

    Need help identify my BB

    Ok so going with the flow of this weird damn engine I went out and scratched the numbers ( T0315XXW) and did a little research. Again can't find anything for suffix XXW found XW but says it's a 350 SB that's not possible so... Anyone seen this suffix before? It decodes fine otherwise T=...

    Well if it were machined it was a long time ago so I could understand them not really caring if they were wiped off. If it was more recent then it would be better preserved. That's my thoughts on it but that being said I still have to get back out there and see if the numbers above the timing...

    My thoughts exactly Wumbo but of course the whole trucks been this way since day one.

    I agree that was a possibility it had been machined down. Either way sucks not having them.
