My 1980 Scottsdale K10 "CLYDE"

This is CLYDE



1980 Scottsdale 4x4 Long Bed
I got this in April from the original owner. Things in pretty good shape. Some body ripples from the previous owners maneuvers with a deer. But, the engine was a GM crate about 50K ago, and just purrs.

I have added a Edelbrock 1406 that improved throttle, performance an sound by 100%. I will (soon) be adding a Edelbrock 2101 Performer intake, Summit long tube headers, coated true dual exhaust with X pipe and Series 50 mufflers. Not sure if I wanna dump before wheels, after or go straight back....? Hmmm?? I'mm also adding a cam - yet to be spec'd - to replace the loser "AAArr Vee" cam that's in there now. Lucked out with no smog reqs, so cats are off with smog pump and egr.
K&N filter or RamAir box. And MSD ignition.

I'm also saving the commission checks for some chrome rallye wheels, caps and rings. And eventually body and paint work.

Thats it for now.

Hey! Welcome to the site.

That sounds like a great ride you have there. All the right components make a good combo that works well together.

As far as your pic goes, the IMG tags are working for the pic in my post and I can't even get your URL to work, even with a copy/paste in my browser. Maybe your host has direct linking disabled? Maybe have to login to your album to see the pics?

Sounds like you have a good plan for the truck. I had my exhaust dumping in front of the axle to start with then later ran out the back. I can say that out the back has less vibration in the cab. As far as the pictures not working you can email me a copy, not a link, and I can post them for you if ya like.
