Really great video. Thanks for taking the time to put this together. Just picked up a 71 gmc 5500 at auction. The drive home I led the parade at 80kph max. Old girl just a screaming away at that speed already

Thanks Roy you are a great KZbinr, and I appreciate your channel Robert. 😁👍

[@RoyMarkosGarageRMG]

Thanks, and hope to get more content up, and enjoy watching your builds too.

[@MuscleCarSolutions]

That thing is amazing.

[@RoyMarkosGarageRMG]

Thank you

[@MyLegacyGarage]

Funny how 60 mph in one of these trucks looks a lot like blasting off into outer space. 🤣 I love it!

[@RoyMarkosGarageRMG]

It's more fun to drive a slow vehicle fast, then a fast vehicle slow.

Had not encountered one of those mounts in my time as a mechanic. Then again I was automotive, not heavy duty. Best days to you Roy !

[@RoyMarkosGarageRMG]

That's why i wanted to show, because people asked.

[@harveywright396]

I seem to remember this system was used in GM automobiles in the 50's.

[@TheOldParakaoStoreCafeBar]

Cool truck Roy 👍🏼take it easy mate 👍🏼🍺😎🇳🇿

[@RoyMarkosGarageRMG]

Thank you

[@drainpluggarage]

Thanks man! That truck is a monster.

[@RoyMarkosGarageRMG]

Thanks for the mail glad you like the truck, and sometimes it does scare people.

[@mostlymoparih5682]

Good stuff at least what I saw, I will have to come back and finish as my eyelids keep getting in the way of my eyes. Happy Motor and good night.

[@RoyMarkosGarageRMG]

Hope you had a restful sleep and were able to come back to this.

[@mostlymoparih5682]

@@RoyMarkosGarageRMG Yup. I took my tablet to bed with me and finished the vid.

[@RustyGlovebox]

Good info to know Roy when considering a build. Maybe an overdrive would be helpful if you did very much highway driving. Cheers Roy

[@RoyMarkosGarageRMG]

Yes lloyd you're right, also I'm looking to put 22.5 tires on it one day that will also increase my final drive.

[@jamesferrell9404]

Thanks. My 366 has the horse shoe mount but figured the BBC is a longer block. But that crossmember looks to be about same place as mine is. So that does give me some peace in going forward with it once weather gets better here. Thanks for sharing. And keep the videos coming.

[@RoyMarkosGarageRMG]

If you're not too far away I could send you my extra small block mount if you like.

[@jamesferrell9404]

@@RoyMarkosGarageRMG are they different from the big block? I live in Tennessee. Not sure how to even go about getting something like that shipped. I did pull my 366T out and measured. Best I can tell its 2 inches longer than my SBC so got to modify the front mount or something

[@jamesferrell9404]

Thank you for doing this video. I did manage to get engine swapped. Had to narrow the horse shoe mount to fit the small block drill two holes so it would align and extend the motor mount a additional two inches so I could bolt it to crossmember. Wasnt to complicated when I got enough nerve to just try it. Trying to figure out what to do about radiator hoses as the inlet and outlet is much smaller on the SBC. But happy with the swap. As that 366T was nothing but trouble and costly to fix

[@thescalemodelcarguychannel8681]

Awesome video Roy!

[@RoyMarkosGarageRMG]

Thank you

[@cbobscountrybunker2312]

Cool thanks, those conversations are getting more and more popular. They are nice to see on the road.

[@RoyMarkosGarageRMG]

Glad I could answer your question

[@RustyIronProjectsRIP]

Those trucks are real work horse. I imagine they don't like freeway miles though.

[@RoyMarkosGarageRMG]

No, not really, they hate it, but it works great!

[@automotiveaddiction428]

I have that mount..and I have a 366 sitting in my front yard..I was gonna build a mud bigger with the engine but never got around to it.

[@RoyMarkosGarageRMG]

Cool, it's basically the same mount.

[@rindaintheraw]

Cool 😎

[@Dadcam_Can]

Some of those old tachs have a dip switch to preset according to the number of engine cylinders. Was it set to read 8 cylinders? The RPMs will read higher than actual on either a 4 or 6 cylinder setting.

[@RoyMarkosGarageRMG]

That's correct it was set to 8 cylinders.

[@romeo.juliet.whiskey]

Great truck! Is the paint code on this truck is "Light Green" Code 503?

[@MagnaMachineWorks]

Awesome video Roy! I sure do love that old truck! I also really like those cheap tachs, they have always served me well! have a good one!

[@RoyMarkosGarageRMG]

Thanks, it's a pretty fun truck

[@1996slamster]

How accurate was your speedometer at 60 miles per hour?

[@RoyMarkosGarageRMG]

As far as I know my speedometer is spot on, but I have not verified with GPS, also every vehicle (and even new ones) the speedometer is about 5% slower than GPS.

[@unclesquirrel6951]

Personally I blame squirrels

[@RoyMarkosGarageRMG]

I think we all do. 😂
