Where it begins

This blog will be documenting the build of a 1984 C10. I will be adding a Garrett GT40 82mm single turbo and other assorted goodies...on the cheap.

The Goals for this build are:

1. 400-425 horsepower (crank) / 360ish (wheels)
2. 8.30's 1/8 Mile (as my local track is 1/8)
3. 12.99 1/4 Mile (once it is sorted out I'll haul it to Rockingham)
4. Do it for $1000 or less out of pocket.

The starting point:

• A $1800 1984 Silverado
• 350 cid. Turbo 350
• Iron heads, Mild Cam, Headers, Performer Intake, Edelbrock Carb, Stock HEI with Moroso recurve kit and Accell Super Coil, 2400 rpm B&M Holeshot converter, Auburn Posi with 3.73 gears.
