I was averaging 17 with it, This truck is a short wheel base cab and chassis model, and it had an overhead hoist mounted to it,, It busted the suspension mount in the driverside and they parted the truck out. I fixed the front end, put on a 7ft flat bed, across the scales its right at 6500# It does haul a load nicely, but I never get over 45-50mph with it and tried not to over work it on the hills. The truck is in good condition, with a few dents, but it aint rusted out yet!!
The truck was not running when I got it either,,, the fuel pump was out, and soon after the injector pump, new injectors, I modified the stock air cleaner,, where it bottlenecks into the intake I opened up the hole, that made a good difference, it perked up. LOL.
The injector pump dumped some fuel into the oil, that was upon first firing it up after a new fuel pump was put on,, it smoked and misfired, but it had good oil pressure for years. I put 35K miles on it in that time.
If I bought a used replacement, I would look for fleet trucks, that had a good mechanic overlooking em.
I wouldnt be shy about totally overhauling this one, but have no idea if they made bigger pistons to fix a worn block. It had great power and ran excellent for quite a few years.
