1988 Chevy Crew Cab 4x4 K/V30 heavy duty 1 ton with a 1st gen. Cummins turbo diesel. I bought the truck with a blown 454 and put in a low mileage drivetrain from a '92 Dodge truck. The Dodge title (which I have) and odometer read 29K. As for the body and chassis, I don't know exactly how many miles it had but would figure about 200k. Since the conversion i have put about 10-15k on it. I drove the truck for several years after putting it together and it ran very well. The truck has been parked for a few years, during which time the rocker panels and cab corners were replaced. I have painted those areas of the truck but it could use a complete paint job if you want a super nice looking vehicle. The clear coat over the red is rough in some places. It has a very solid body but does have some dents and dings. There is light surface rust in a few areas on the frame and the body. Take a look at the pictures and it should give you an idea of the rust. I raised the body 3 inches to clear the engine and installed new body mounts at that time. The floor pans are solid, however the inside portion where the rocker attaches to has rusted through in a couple places. I sand blasted and repainted all the metal behind the rocker panels and cab corners. This truck was originally sold as a cab and chassis setup, bed was added by previous owner.

Ok, now for the engine, this is a rotary injection pump (has been resealed and had larger fuel pin and 3200 rpm gov. spring installed). There are 2 sets of injectors that come with the truck, factory and a set of 100+hp injectors. The turbo is a later model HX 35 which spools quickly. Boost can hit 30 lbs. The Dodge intercooler and radiator where used. The engine runs smoothly and does not seem to use oil. I fabricated the exhaust from 4 inch pipe starting right behind the turbo. I used the factory Dodge crossmembers for the engine and trans, so mounting points are Dodge design. The truck smokes a little at idle with the big injectors but still gets about 18-20 mpg highway at about 65. I believe rpms are about 2000 at 65.

The trans is the Dodge A518 automatic overdrive. Before it was installed in the truck, I rebuilt the trans with performance parts and a special low stall convertor from DTT. This trans does not have lockup. The convertor holds the power very well and the trans shifts and works well.

The transfer case is the Dodge version of the NP205 cast iron case gear drive. The driveshafts were cut and rebalanced and u joints were replaced at the time of swap. The axles are the original Chevy setup with a Dana 60 solid front axle and an open 14 bolt corporate rear. The ratios are matched at 3.73 and run well on the highway. I currently run 285/75/16 tires. Front will need replaced and rear have about 50%. (BFG all terrain T/A)

The A/C was converted to r134a and uses a Dodge compressor made for that refrigerant. Both the A/C & heating systems work well.

The interior is basic with no headliner or surrounding trim. It does have power locks and windows which work on 3 of the doors. Radio is a newer cd player and I put new speakers on the door panels and new 6*9 speakers behind rear seats. From the pictures, you will see a few cracks in the dash and there are some small holes from probably a cb or other controls. The driver seat area is rough but all other areas are good. It has tilt steering and intermitent wipers. The carpet is a charcoal grey and is not the original design. I have recently installed new door gaskets on all 4 doors. The truck can be a little noisy inside since there is no headliner or extra trim. I do have some Dynamat material that goes with the truck, I just never installed it. Also, the guages are Autometer and Sunpro and are set into the factory dash panel. There is a boost guage, trans temp guage and also a egt guage that have the sensors installed, but need to be hooked up. The truck was originally set up with dual fuel tanks and I retained that system. However, the aftermarket fuel guage calibration is slightly off so it stays on full for quite a while, then drops quickly. (I did run out of fuel a couple times before learning this.) Truck recently drove about 300 miles with no trouble at all. Email me through ebay if you have any questions.

GM alerting truck and sedan owners to a do-over on brake recall

Wed, Jan 29 2020

A recall campaign intended to address issues with braking systems on certain 2019 General Motors trucks and sedans may have introduced a new issue, the automaker has acknowledged, and thousands of owners driving repaired vehicles may need to return to their service departments for another update.Â The update addresses a fix that was pushed out to owners of more than half a million brand-new GM trucks and sedans that could potentially lose partial braking function, according to the Detroit Free Press. The original software fix helped address situations where the vehicles' anti-lock braking systems would become disabled, which in turn would prevent electronic stability control from activating. Vehicles subject to the recall would often experience software glitches that prevented them from properly communicating the operational state of these systems, meaning drivers would have no idea that their brakes may not behave as expected in an emergency. The 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, Cadillac CT6, and GMC Sierra 1500 were all recalled in the original campaign.Â Unfortunately, the early version of this fix appears to have introduced yet another software glitch, indicating that the original fix did not do the trick. Those who have not yet had their cars serviced can rest easy; they will only receive the most up-to-date version of the software fix.Â Related video Â Â

Six-week production shutdown planned for 2016 Chevy Volt

Thu, Apr 9 2015

It's no surprise that GM is winding down production of the first-gen Chevy Volt as it prepares to start building the second-gen for a launch in the second half of this year, but for now, things are proceeding as planned, according to Chevrolet spokesperson Michelle Malcho. Malcho told AutoblogGreen that GM "is still making first generation Volt" and that there has been no announcement about when that will change. The only details she would divulge is that, "It will be this summer." "Halting Chevrolet Volt production in anticipation of the all-new 2016 model year is a smart move for GM," Akshay Anand, an analyst at Kelley Blue Book's KBB.com, said in a statement. "[The move] allows for less inventory and incentives on the outgoing model. Hybrid and alternative fuel vehicle sales have been declining for some time now, with gas prices well below the summer prices of 2014." Volt production will cease in the weeks before the traditional two-week auto plant shutdown over the July 4 holiday. A high inventory of Volts is a factor in the production cuts, but not the only one, Malcho said. The plant construction, engineering changes and pre-production plans for the new Volt and CT6 all were part of the decision, she said. Nationwide, there is about a 200-day supply of Volts on dealer lots (roughly 100 days in California, the car's biggest market), according to the Detroit Free Press, which says there will be a six-week retooling period (twice as long as normal, but other sources say the shutdown will be four weeks long) at GM's Hamtramck plant this summer to get ready for the second-gen model. The 2016 Volt will get an increase in all-electric range to 50 miles and will then get 41 miles per gallon when the battery runs out. It also has a fifth seat that straddles the battery tunnel and a larger li-ion battery. Related Video: The AP contributed to this report.
