Welcome to the site! :beer

I can just about see the intake setup in your avatar. It looks pretty neat.
If you want to post a picture, it's pretty easy on this site... When you're doing a post, you'll see an "Upload a File" button in the lower right corner. If you click on that, it'll let you insert and image from your computer.

I got it in this sweet 67 short step GMC.I bought the truck for a replacement body for my 68 C/10 and it happened to have this engine with a 700r4.

The former owner built the serpentine system also.I bought the truck for the body to replace my 68 C/10 that got hit and it had this killer motor that I didn't realize was so bitchin.I might use this instead of the LS that is in the other chassis.The throttle response with this TPI is comparable to a new LS setup,but the torque this thing makes down low is crazy.

:welcome2 Very nice truck and a lot of ingenuity there. I wonder what the builder used for headers? Can you tell if they are custom made?
I bet that it will get some decent mileage if you can keep your foot out of it.
