Same for the sludge.. that's important stuff (the engine needs that weight to stay in there!!)

    Intake manifold leaks on this generation of Chevy engine is quite common. I had to change the intake manifold gaskets on my '91 C-1500 pickup at around 100k. With that much clogging I would imagine you are going to need a radiator and a water pump before long as well. Both are easy to change. Ask me how I know?!

As one that once lived in the Midwest - I'd toss out the idea of soaking the belly of that baby in either Fluid Film or Wool Wax - Wool Wax doesn't smell as strong - but either do an amazing job of keeping the rust away - and it washes off. I use to treat my rigs twice a year - it makes the bottom slimy and dirty = but not rusty! You can't use it on the newer GM with the soft/wax coat frames - but this Suburban is perfect.

I think Emma 2.0 Being a clean rust free Sqarebody Suburban is at least worth 5 to 6 K. I wouldn't sell it for anything less. I watch Daltons channel also and if anything you could send it to him or use it as your tool rig. Either way I enjoy your channel its one of the ones I watch regularly. I hope to see a Fury update soon! Got my flag flying proudly! Enjoy the Memorial Day weekend and cruise that sweet Torino as Much as you can!
