Nope a green S10 with a Sy drive line with a blank manifold and column shift.

I’m pretty sure I know who you’re talking about that truck was a prototype I’ve seen his posts in the syty

Got it on the stand today, along with the boxes of parts. Everything is nicely labeled and organized for the most part. Have a cable drive throttle body also. Block looks pretty good along with the bearings from what I can see. Hopefully will be a quick and easy put back. Where is a good place to order rings and bearings from? I’m not looking to make power with it right now just wanting a good driveable engine for the moment

nice. Might want to upgrade the oil pump n cam since you've got it tore down. There was an issue with the oil passages or something of that nature. I'll dig it up, may take a bit, but the fix is pretty cheap. I'll throw a link up when I find it.
