I bought this truck last year in Ohio while on holdiay (vacation) visting the States. It is a 1987 1-ton dually crewcab pickup, 2 wheel drive (4 really, as the back axle has 4 wheels/tyres!), with a TBI 454 big block engine.
Then I imported it back home to England over here in the UK! Since we don't have the same emission laws as the US, I ripped off all the existing stock exhaust manifold, catalytic converter, A.I.R exhaust injection sh*t, and single-pipe exhaust system. This was replaced with heavy-duty Hedman headers, and straight-thru dual exhaust pipes. I got 18 seconds for the 1/4 mile with the truck like this.
I have now replaced the Throttle Body Injection and inlet manifold with an Edelbrock fuel-injection conversion manifold. Now the truck REALLY flies!! I still have to get to the track again yet to see what difference it has made.
