1979 was also the first year the tall-deck 454 V-8 was available (1980 being the only other year). That engine would not return for the mediums until 1998 (model year 1999), by which time it was known as the Vortec 7400MD and re-introduced to replace both the 366 and 427 engines.

That's cause the 366 being smaller had to work harder to hall all that steel as opposed to the 427, 454,or 455's which where born for heavy hauling.

my grampies got a 79 c70 too the inside is a weard color green the outside is the same color well... its the same color as the ocean contracting he bought it from them
-
Easy on the old girl
-
It'll get about 4, surprisingly the big block 427 had better mileage than the 366
-
When i go up there i'll show you how to drive twin stick haha
-
@6030diesel What is the horsepower and torque of that 366 ?
-
It does get around 3 Miles to the gallon empty, so probably gets around 2 gallons to the mile with a full load.... haha!
-
Oh yeaaaaaaaa :D I wish I had an old Gas grain or dump truck like this!
-
yea when your luggin down in the 366 you just floor it and when them secondaries crack open you can just watch the tach climb!
-
Yeah but this thing is low geared and plus, I didn't go to 5th, I went up to 4th. If the feild would be longer it would have been even faster :D but man when you get on 'er you feel the torque when you hear the 4 burrels open up !
-
kids stuff. my 366 will blow the living doors off that truck. ive had it wrapped up to over 140 empty.
-
No idea lol gauge doesn't work. Pretty sure I was doing a little over 80km/h.
-

-
I must thank you very much for sending that for this truck! It looks Awesome with it! First time I went at the farm, it didn't have a knob and wasn't very nice to shift, but now with that awesome knob it's fun to drive :D
