These guys are well organized compared to the others. Love the part on restoring the dent back to normal. He provided good information and was calm about it. Not in a rushed perspective.
My 1991 C1500 with a 350 and has never been rebuilt and has just under 319,000 miles and nothing wrong with mine!
That truck looks real good way better than the 2020’s Chevys how crazy
"We didn't waste money, we just have to spend more." LOL
IKR..LOL
I would take this truck over any new model. Back in 1999 I bought a 1995 GMC Sierra. It had 40,000 miles on it and other than a few cosmetic things it was basically the same truck as this one. I wish I never got rid of that truck and I'm sure I would still be running strong today.
1:42 popup The Vortec 5700 (L31) is actually a Gen I small block, so no it wasn't discontinued in 1996 but rather carried on until 2002. That's why the heads are backward compatible, while LS heads are not (pretty sure LT heads are not compatible either.) The Vortec designation often gets it improperly classified as a Gen III, when all the truck engines became known as Vortecs (5.3 etc.)
Love all the trolls, keyboard NHRA engineers, and Street Outlaws that show up here to comment. Let me break something down for you: we as car enthusiast should come here and support one another, and this channel. We are a niche culture and should appreciate Power Nation for giving us videos to enjoy and a place to get away from all the silly cat postings. Who cares if they put roller rockers on a stock engine or use sponsored parts on a car, just enjoy the fact that there’s a place for us car-guys/gals to gather and possibly steal some ideas for own projects.
11:28 use narrow body self-aligning roller rockers. I'm running a roller cam with 1.6 rockers and .550/.546 lift with the stock valvecovers.
The small comment about small blocks being discontinued in GM vehicles in 1996 is not entirely true. They were updated in 96 with a spider injector set, roller block and better heads. The small block Chevy was actually available up until 2003.
Austin James they still sell them as crate engines ..
Michel Linschoten Yes, but I mean they’re not still put in new vehicles.
I love what you all are doing with that truck.
YAY A NEW ENGINE BUILD !!
I like the breather that was installed.
I am working on building 383 stroker 1st gen for my 1977 GMC K25 Longbox Restoration. Swing by the channel to track it!
Looks so sharp with the new headlights and grille
Lol......"low buck"
Right?
Love this show . They make it sound so much fun. It real easy guy , just connect the 💰with stacks of 💵 inside of your very clean and well lit state of the art garage. I watch it every chance I get 😆
cliffdaddy126 , it's only $19.95 for everything , because Summit gives them everything for free , in return Summit gets free advertising , so if you would like free stuff just mention good ole boy Joe Bob junk yard on state route 3 in your nearest town , parts are free , shipping is $10,000 dollars , and they don't allow you to get the parts yourself
Midnight Trumptrain , just When was your last 383 crate engine purchase ? after you just rebuilt your truck including with an new paint job ? all of this is 5 to 7 grand depending on your location , and are they hiring at your job , we all want your high pay check like you get
Waylon Miller , that's cool that your Camaro runs outlaw class at the strip ,
but I kinda know what it is to by parts now and then because I have 2 Camaro's , 2 Nova's ,3 Chevelle's , 5 S-10 Truck's , 3 Chevy Trucks of 67 & 68 K-20 4X4 , 3 OBS trucks 89 , another 89 short bed with 350 and 5 speed , other is a 96 3/4 4X4 with 33 inch Superswampers , A 78 square body Chevy truck 2 wheel drive , A 77 Blazer 4X4 on 33 inch tires .
And my built 66 Chevelle Super Sport , with a built 327/450hp small block with 12:1 compression pistons , vette crank , ported heads, aluminum high rise intake,
750cfm carb , headers , HEI distributor ,Lakewood blow proof bellhousing ,11 inch heavy duty clutch , M-21 Muncie 4 speed trans , 12 bolt posi Trac rear end with 4:11 gears , traction bars ,
pulls front tires off the ground in first and second gear ,
5.5 sec@ 96mph in 1/8th
11.1sec@ 127mph in 1/4
Our low buck truck isn't a low buck truck no more. Yay budget projects they do that's fit for the rich
Glad you guys posted the video of the paint and prep on it.
Tristen1972 yeah I know right. I wanna see everything leading up until this point.
Tyler Thompson Idk how many different projects they have had on here that they just completely skip an episode and Im like “yeah, totally didn’t wanna see that or anything.”
1:43 Actually 2003 was the last year that a small block was available in a GM vehicle. The Chevy Express/GMC Savanna were the last vehicles to offer a 350 Vortec.
The Black Car Guy was looking to see if anyone else caught that
He was talking about TBI small blocks not small blocks in general
nice setup. It would be low budget to me, but I see the other comments. I only see the crankcase breathing mistake.. but you mentioned it. Passenger side takes air in, driver side is the hot exit...that gets the pcv valve. you can make use of the classic looking air filter housing and remain the old school look. The rod ratio is very hard on the 383.. its an engine to keep rpms down like factory. I remember when it came out in a car craft article in the 90s. I had SBC in 3 different projects.. before the LS came out
GM had 5.7 in Van chassis up past 2000, maybe around 2002 ,...1996 they were getting good with the Vortec Head
Such good looking trucks. Love that body style
Love the look, wish i had me one
Great looking truck guys. Thanx for sharing
I wish Power Nation took my Silverado 2002
Truck for an upgrade !!
Just gotta love this show every sunday !!!
I would love to have that engine to go in my 96 Tahoe but it would be a shame with my paint and electrical issues but with my Monster trans and completely rebuilt front and rear diff with this engine it would be a beast.
The problem with 350 upgrades has got to be the fact that LS motors are cheaper and easier to work with. The cost of the EFI system alone, $3500, is more than buying the LS engine and swap kit. In most cases, at least where I am, junkyard 350's are becoming more expensive than LS engines if similar mileage and age.
That being said, this is a cool build, and one I thought of pursuing but the EFI is the biggest barrier for upgrades to these trucks.
Yup unfortunately the ls bug is out and everyone knows now so prices for them are starting to go up use to be able to pick em up from the junkyard for $800 here now they range from $1500-$2000.
My 94's block has just over 200,000 mile. Bout time for me to stroker.
I love this series of videos. I have always been in love with the 90s model Silverados. Great video guys.
Learn how to scam with that bolt under mount is crazy 😮😮😮😂❤
I stopped watching 2 minutes in when they said “GM discontinued the small block in 1996”
WTH is a 5.7 Vortec?😂
Man I was thinking the same thing lll
and they went to 1999 lol
He was talking about the TBI small block
Heres how to fix a 350 tbi= work the heads, get a good cam, edelbrock performance tbi intake new gaskets and you're good
I wonder what the color code is for the paint. Love that blue.
That is awesome. Now do that same thing in a Colorado. That would be a badass truck.
The narrator always sounds like he wants to sell me Brawndo.
It has electrolytes
@@68madison LMAO!! -Exactly!!!
What plants crave
I like money
I could use a starbucks
Not low buck unless your a lawyer
outstanding!!!
Man, in the future im thinking to build a C10 Drift Truck. I wanted to make an ls3, but here in Brazil (where i live) There arent any Ls ´s for sale. So, i think that a 350 small block or a 383 can be a good choice for me.
GM didn't discontinue the small block in 96, they discontinued it in the early 2000.
As far as the 5.7 vortec in chevy and gm trucks, the last year was 1999. In 2000, they used the 4.8 and 5.3 V8. The only vehicle that used the 5.7 vortec after 99 was pontiac and camaro.
I have 2 isuzu NPR 2002 trucks at work with vortec 350 so who knows when they truelly stopped mass production of them.
The change to Vortec heads came in 96, but it was still an SBC.
Awesome 😎
260k miles... psh it was just half way through its life....
Ikr
Think about how much less it would be to do an LS swap and how much power it would make compared. These episodes are made to sell parts.
@Waylon Miller you realize price and quality/performance dont always go hand and hand. You're really showing your ignorance.
Beautiful paint job work truck engine bay
He hit his hand on the new injection 😂
Nice
The audio and video is so crisp. Like it was recorded yesterday.
Can yall do an episode on how to upgrade the fuel system to e85 on the stock 350? Thanks!!
Folks, do not hang a camshaft off the front of the block by inserting just inserting the back journal into the front bearing. You may damage the bearing.
So can u just buy a forged shortblock and swap everything over from your previous engine?
I LOVE these engine builds but, my God...between the block and the upgrades, this engine setup must have cost $15-$18,000!!! Sorry guys, but I'd be stuck rebuilding the original block.
MrCrystalcranium I was gonna post exactly this. Especially for a “budget” build like was said in the intro.
Must be your first video here.... Every single time they say budget build that means their budget not a cheap budget lmao
Gas Mask lol man seems like it. I’ve watched about 20 episodes of it and I thought it was like a one time thing with what they thought was a budget. Then I see this episode and I’m like wtf.
These shopping list episodes are dull.
15-18k get out of here! That engine with FI may be around 6-7k max! How about you research prices....
I still have my almost new stroker 383, hyd roller, Dart heads & even though it only needs re-assy, (bearings / rings / gaskets, etc...) I can't justify the time & money when I can do a LS engine.... Maybe I'll put it in my 1967 Toyota Corona
I thought it was a game for a second😂😂
1:43 ...well heres a point they didnt stop using small blocks in 1996... chevy continued to put the small block in vans till 2003... suburbans/tahoes, trucks till 2000...
nice truck
You know if they would have just put a 5.3 with a turbo in it they’d probably make more horsepower for cheaper and they’d save TONS on fuel😂😂
What would it take to fit a 383 stroker to replace my 5.3 vortec
2003 silverado 4x4?
Should drop right in I'm doing that on my blazer
Ok, so where is the dyno run, what numbers will it produce?
What do you do with these vehicles after you guys fix them
Why’d they paint the original valve covers black and then switch to the brushed aluminum ones at the end?
This is awesome! I'm trying to figure out how to squeeze a 8 liter in my '06 2500. Seeing this gives me some ideas.
8.1 Chevy?
If you're talking 8.3 Cummins or some diesel, it can easily be made to fit but will require fab work obviously. Would love to see an 8.3 done tho as that's a goal of mine.
@@GreatLakesLogger 8.1 gas. For the cost of cramming in a diesel I'd be better off just buying that outright.
@@njineermike basically a bolt in swap, theres dude that does it
ua-cam.com/video/9vr2j7Bv9Cs/v-deo.html
I wish they would work on a 90s era f150
Waiting for the dyno numbers
Can you post the paint code digging the color
I took the AC off of my 1985 Dodge and it still had a lot of charge in it which it surprised me because it didn't work
Just a breather,no PCV valve on the other valve cover? 🤔
Budget build? Riiiight.
I'd rather rebuild the old one. Seems like more fun to me lol. And id just put a carb on it. Let er eat
"Make sure you don't nick the cam bearings on installation", leaves the cam hanging in the front cam bearing by the distributor drive gear.
hope they address how they dealt with the factory computer and speedometer interface, etc.
Why is there only one salve cover breather? Won’t the other side get pressure too?
I finished a 383 kit on my Merc. I went from a top speed of 52mph stock to 82mph.
Jay UA-cam please explain this
@@topkek7003 probably 3spd automatic with a 4.11 rear end.
Not sure what you mean, I’ll try to help. I had an 85 350 Mercruser buy GM (marine) out of mi Imperial. I sent the block to my machine guy and told him what I was doing, he knew what he had to do to the block. I ordered the kit from summer racing by the time the kit came, the machinist sent it back all ready. I along with a Nephew assembled it in 2weeks or so. Got 400+hp out of it. Hope that clears up a bit of confusion..
@@jayyoutube8790 so it's still in the boat. That makes so much more sense because it's a straight drive system no transmission to really speak of just forward and reverse
Steven Burks ya.. but I have a “IO”... I am running a Bravo 2 that’s good for 559hp. That’s the “inboard/outboard” that would be like a “transmission” for a boat. Just like a trans, for a boat you could call it. I have a built one to handle more HP too.
Phenomenal Truck !!! I love this era truck. Is there a company that could do this restoration for me or help me do it. Also, is there a company that specialized in rust free trucks like the one in the video. Thanks
Do they have a video where they paint the truck ??
Accessory Drive?!?! Im putting a 406 in mine with tall valve covers. My stock 5.7 accessory drive brackets that Im trying to use will not clear the tall valve covers. What did you guys do to avoid this problem?
I would love to see how are you rebuild OK engine or upgrade the engine on a Chevy Tahoe early 2000’s to 2006 LT model
Dirt Murphy. Well said!
@POWERNATION Exactly which short block is that on Summit? The link takes me to several. Asking because that looks to have the correct D dish pistons for a Vortec build and would be definitely be interested in that.
Purooo cuhhhh in this video
What color is the truck??? And that's a badass engine
Just put an LS3 in it and and call it a day :)
id rather have a 383 stroker
they have the same power stock and the 383 sounds better
@@musclecarsdaily3020 well there isnt really such a thing as a stock 383 but an ls3 is a 6.2 and a 383 is a 6.3
both will make 550hp on pump 93
the 383 is gonna need a 210+cc head and a 240+ duration @.050 camshaft and an 850 with 3500+ stall.
@@KingJT80 never knew that, fyi your right about the ls3 being a 6.2 but its actually the older ones that are still the ls3, my 6.2 gmc sierra denali is an LT engine
@@musclecarsdaily3020 yeah we've moved to geniv now
One giant commercial...……….. who needs that.
Hillbillys
Most of these "build shows" are just dressed up infomercials for parts companies. It's a decent bet they got all the parts for free which is why it's a budget build.
That sand blaster is super old school and takes of too much material. Y'all need to try out a vapor blaster from vapor honing technologies.
That engine will live under 5000rpm and those Roller Rockers are a bit waste of money. Just use stock rocker arm that way you can use your valve covers.
Bro, this show is to sell you parts. Duh....
Why did yall leave the clutch crank driven fan instead of upgrading to an electric fan(s)?
What colour of blue is that
You probably should have done the engine before you painted it and cleaned and painted the engine compartment first!
Love for you guys to build a monster Coyote and place it in a Ranger or s10
Theres an episode of them working on a cooling system for a coyote in a ranger
Javier C thanks 😊 that’s a fun sounding video
Anyone would put an LS on an S10 before a coyote.
Squid Usn I don’t think so
@@ripfletching well, unless a running coyote eng is free but then there's too much involved with the swap. There's a reason why the LS swap on any vehicle are popular. I guess, you've never heard any LS swapped mustangs.
Figure on 3K for that fuel injection set-up. Must be nice too have unlimited funds.
I think most people watching this are not going to spend $2700 on a TIG welder.
Will it pass smog inspection?
Not a bad looking truck...for a Chevy. I'd drive that
Shaun Morin 90 and 80 70 probably the best looking trucks they ever made. Especially the 90s was perfect these trucks
9:59 Comp cam valve train protector? CPTDE creating problem that don't exist.
Yeah I thought that. Selling unnecessary stuff.
F165 What’s up BlackEricDenice
@@johnwilson1784 Sorry I missed the family reunion.
Gotta sell that old dusty stock.
Actually they stopped putting the 350 in production trucks in 99, but still offer it as a crate motor
What kind of engine stand is that?
It's nice to see a SBC build. So sick of seeing LS swap this and LS swap that.
You must not like power...
@@elonmust7470 I do like power, I just don't like cookie cutter builds or over-rated fanboy bullshit.
I would like to see what you could do with a 2012 5.3 Vortec for a lot more power and durability.
Charles Holt the 2012 dont have the vortec Chevy discontinued the vortec in 2006
Iron block FR? Aluminum block would be the way to go
this is awesome and I would most likely cry if some one did this for my truck. A friend of mine willed me this truck and told me I was to never sell it. I told him it would stay in the family always. It is a 95 Chevy 1500 and it needs a ton of work but it dose run and gets down the road ok.
Im picking up a 383 stroker crate engine with 536 hp and 483 tq for my 1983 GMC Jimmy
8:45 If this thread sealer is NOT used, with the engine potentially burn antifreeze, or will it just leak on the exterior of the motor. Sorry if this seems like a stupid question. Asking for a friend...lol
It will leak out of the head. It will not burn in the combustion chamber. The head gasket is a barrier between the combustion chamber and the rest of the head.
I have a 93 k1500 blazer with 350 bor 660 what can i update that too
