If it had the 350 it would be. 305 is weak at best.

Oh if the picture is the truck He is lying to you, that is an 86 or so, nice gag LOL

uhhg, the 350 doesnt have enough power in the K1500, I couldn't imagine a 305 trying to push the truck

Lol. If you want one I guess you should do what you want to do the good thing is it ain't real expensive to put a new motor in there
