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.

Nissan Leaf hits 3,000 sales in July, Chevy Volt climbs over 2,000

Fri, Aug 1 2014

It was a good sales month for both the Nissan Leaf and the Chevy Volt, with the two 'elder statesman' plug-in vehicles reaching numerical milestones in July. The Leaf sold 3,019 units and the Volt crossed the 2,000 sales level for the first time in 2014, hitting 2,020 sales. With Tesla also announcing it is delivering around 2,500 Model S EVs a month (but that's globally, compared to the US-only numbers for the Volt and Leaf we're talking about here) and Ford's plug-in vehicles selling well, we are certainly in a golden moment for EV sales. The Volt was a bright spot for the Bowtie brand last month. For the Volt, the 2,020 units sold represents a 13 percent increase from July of 2013 even thought year-to-date sales are down 8.7 percent this year compared to last year. Overall, total Chevrolet deliveries for July 2014 were up eight percent compared to 2013, so the Volt was a bright spot for the Bowtie brand last month. On the Leaf front, this is only the second time that the EV has sold more than 3,000 units in a month (the other being in May of this year). The year-over-year increase for the Leaf was 62 percent in July and represents the 17th straight month of record sales, as Nissan is more than happy to report each month. Overall, Leaf sales are up 34.6 percent, year-to-date, and Nissan's director of Leaf sales and infrastructure, Brendan Jones, said in a statement that a free public charging incentive was responsible. "Since we launched the No Charge to Charge promotion in the first 10 markets, we've seen a surge in Leaf sales in those areas. Leaf sales in the northeastern US are also picking up with new tax incentives for Massachusetts and Maryland residents." With No Charge To Charge set to expand to 25 markets over the next year, we expect Leaf sales to continue to grow. We will have our monthly look at all green car sales available soon, so stay tuned.

GM says hybrid Corvette no laughing matter [w/poll]

Fri, 30 Aug 2013

When Mark Reuss was in LA recently, he sat down to have a few words with the scribes at the Los Angeles Times. When the issue of a hybrid Corvette came up, Reuss answered with "Don't laugh." The General Motors president is a complete fan of the possibility, calling it "attractive" and "really fun," believing it would improve GM expertise and that "people would love it."
Naturally, the president being supportive of an idea doesn't give indication that a hybrid Corvette is on the way. However, with supercars like the Porsche 918 Spyder and Ferrari LaFerrari giving hybrid tech a solid, if remote, place in the performance car world, the inexorable trickle-down of technology means we shouldn't be surprised if and when it does happen.
And now that we have that non-negative half-answer to a speculative question, it would be irresponsible for us not to commence rumormilling for the C8 Corvette. Taking Reuss at his word, the C8 will obviously be a hybrid with all-wheel-drive - the left side wheels driven with electric motors, the right side with the mid-mounted, four-cylinder diesel engine. With coefficient of drag of just .16, figure on a 0-to-60 mile-per-hour time of under 2 seconds and an all-electric range of something like 30 miles at top speed. Don't forget, folks, you read it here first.

The 2023 Detroit Auto Show didn’t play host to a lot of reveals, but on top of the new cars that were revealed there, automakers brought a whole bunch of cars we havenÂ’t seen in person yet.
