yea if i get it come spring time i wanna save up and throw either a procharger or supercharger on it n have a monster. i have massive amounts of research to do before that happens though.. i would need to figure out the traction issue then too. its for sure staying sleeper though (if it looks sleeper as it is now) lol

i cant say that for 100% certain as its been over 2.5 years since i've last seen the truck and at the time i never looked under the hood.. n now i only have a pic that really shows the filter on top.. so im not sure to be honest
thats pretty much the only thing im not certain on for the truck otherwise i know pretty much everything else done to it.. its great knowing exactly who built the truck from the ground up. when i go home next i planned on asking him about the carb vs. injection issue i wasnt sure on
some other things it has:
- Posi rear end
- Adjustable airbag rear suspension assists (which allows for no suspension squat if i ever need to put something heavy in the box)
- Hidden exhaust with bumper delete.
- Pioneer CD player.
- Center console 'slap' shifter (when wanting to manually slam through the gears)

i'd say it's probably carbed as well... a good buddy from HS had an '88 with a gmpp 350 swap, 5 speed, 4x4, that thing was a beast. last spring when he brought it out of storage a mouse must have got in and chewed up the wiring cuz it ended up in flames and all his work went right out the window...
