Description
Lot #157 - This custom 1987 Chevrolet K20 Deluxe pickup is a 3/4-ton, 4x4 example that was refurbished and modified under previous ownership. It is powered by a fuel-injected 383ci stroker V8 engine mated to a 700R4 4-speed automatic transmission. The engine features an Eagle crankshaft, forged connecting rods, KB pistons, high-flow cylinder heads with aluminum roller rockers, an Engine Pro camshaft, a Cloyes double-row timing chain and a Melling high-flow oil pump. This pickup's induction is accomplished via an Edelbrock TBI intake with 620cc/min injectors, a CFM Technologies throttle-body and a Harris Performance EPROM chip. Engine cooling is provided by an aluminum radiator with dual electric fans, and the dual-exhaust system features Hedman headers feeding an H-pipe, Dynomax Super Turbo mufflers and stainless-steel tips. Power is routed through the 700R4 automatic transmission and equipped with Alto clutches, Kolene steel clutch plates, a TransGo shift kit, a Corvette servo and governor, and a replacement cooler. Additional work to this pickup included coating the frame with rust inhibitor, as well as installing replacement fuel-system components, and additional modifications include a suspension lift with rear air springs, Dakota Digital gauges and aftermarket audio/visual equipment. It rides on 8-lug 16-inch Eagle Alloy wheels that wear Cooper Discoverer STT Pro tires. Stance is provided by a 2.5-inch Rough Country suspension lift with rear air springs. It was repainted in white over two-tone interior gray and black upholstery. The cabin features a bench seat that was reupholstered in two-tone gray joined by black door panels and gray carpets. The dashboard is upholstered in black and houses dual Valor monitors linked to a DVD player, and additional equipment includes air conditioning and a floor-mounted Lokar shifter. The MOMO steering wheel frames Dakota Digital instruments with blue readouts. The frame has been coated with rust inhibitor and the body mounts were replaced as part of the refurbishment, along with the fuel tank, sender, fuel pump, pressure regulator and fuel hoses.
