This project update records the early stage of an engine replacement for a 1977 Chevy C20 pickup at AMR Automotive in Calgary. The work began with an inspection to plan the replacement and rebuilding work.
Preparing the engine project
At this stage, removal of the old engine was planned and the replacement engine was being rebuilt before installation. The aim was to prepare the engine for the truck rather than rush it straight under the hood.
The gallery shows this stage of the project. AMR has also published 1977 Chevy C20: Engine Rebuild and Upgrades, a separate article detailing completed engine work, tuning and exhaust upgrades on a C20 pickup.
