Can't believe i found this

So i was under the impression that i lost every picture that i had of my old 87 K5 when my ex's computer took a ****. apparently someone took a ****ty video of the truck on the dyno after i put the 355 in it. it's a terrible video but i loved that truck it was my high school ride.
