Complete Engine Block Rebuild with a mild performance cam.
Bored .030 over and Balanced.
Complete Cylinder Head Rebuild.
Compression Ratio is 9.8 to 1. Stock was 7.4 to 1.
Clifford Aluminum Intake with a Holley 350 CFM 2 BBL
Clifford “shorty†Truck Headers w/ VHT 1500 Ceramic Paint.
Clifford X-pipe to balance duel Flowmaster exhaust system.
All improvements probably added 50 HP to the stock 135 HP…
Not a lot of total horsepower, but moves the truck well with the air conditioner on.
