Power comes from a BluePrint 383 stroker, a stroked small-block combination chosen for the broad low-end torque these engines are known for, topped with BluePrint cylinder heads and a Holley carburetor running an electric choke conversion. Spent gases exit through Hedman long-tube headers into a true dual exhaust, with heat-shroud sleeving to manage underhood temperatures. Backing the engine is a TH350 automatic, the classic GM three-speed that pairs naturally with a small-block of this character, set up here with a new flexplate, detent cable, and torque converter hardware. Cooling was addressed as part of the swap with a Griffin performance aluminum radiator, electric fans and shroud, a new coolant overflow reservoir, and fresh upper and lower hoses.
The accessory drive was reworked to suit the new engine, with a Powermaster 175-amp alternator, a new power steering pump and pulley kit, and new engine brackets and belts. Engine electrical was sorted with Painless wiring components, a VDO oil pressure gauge, and a Painless 185-degree temperature sender, with the harness dressed in Techflex sleeving for a clean install. Underneath, the rear drum brakes were serviced with new shoes, wheel cylinders, adjusters, and hardware, and the front wheel bearings were replaced. Inside, the truck keeps the simple, durable square-body layout with a blue bench seat, updated with a Sony Bluetooth radio.
The result is a usable square-body GMC with a strong torque-focused engine combination and the cooling, charging, and brake work to back it up, suited to a buyer who wants a finished driver rather than a project.
