  • In this video I give a full in depth tour of a 1990 GMC Topkick Dumptruck. I take viewers on a close look through the interior and exterior of this truck while showing details, over viewing of features, and noting unique styling cues to the vehicle itself. I also show the engine and the details of it, start it up and see how it sounds under acceleration. A thorough tour/review of this truck designed to give others a greater overall appreciation of the vehicle.

    meh, city people don't realize how powerful these old GM trucks are, but just trucks but everything american made before 1995 they last a long time, and the sound they make is heck of a lot nicer than any modern car/truck, nothing tops an American v8... I bought a 1986 GMC Vandura cargo van and 1985 GMC topkick brand new from the dealer for my business here in Kuwait, both are running strong and are being worked with minimal wear and tear..

      We had one with air brakes, the way the pump was set up was horrible. It would constantly rattle them out, one time it broke the bolt holes in the head that held the pump up. Easy enough fix, we just swapped the heads around (by the way, the heads on those 366 bb's were fucking heavy). That's when we figured out the factory bolts weren't using up half the threads they could have. Put in the right length bolts and it was great from then on out.

    The second generation of the Chevrolet Kodiak/GMC TopKick was introduced for 1990. Under the GMT530 architecture, all GM medium-duty trucks were consolidated under the Kodiak/TopKick nomenclature, with C/K shifting to consumer-derived vehicles (pickup trucks). Following the 1986 joint venture between GM and Volvo, GMC ended production of the General, Astro, and Brigadier, leaving the Class 6-7 Kodiak/TopKick as the largest vehicles produced by GM. In a break from the single engine offering of the first generation Kodiak/TopKick, GMT530 adopted the powertrain line of the 1973-1989 medium-duty C/K trucks. Gasoline engines were offered as standard equipment, with diesel engines as an option. The standard gasoline engine was a 6.0L fuel-injected V8, with an optional carbureted 7.0L V8 (replaced by a 7.4L V8 in 1991

    you should annotate that its a TBI engine (Throttle Body Injection). Its a fuel injection system where the fuel is injected in to the throttle body like a carb, only its electronic. GM did this quite a bit on truck motors in the early 90s
