Just picked this 94 ss up it's a peppy little truck but bone stock decent shape but oil leaking down onto exhaust I believe oil pan does motor have to come out.and what are these trucks worth should I rebuild the 4.3 maybe add cold air intake and msd drop the stock exhaust and run true duels.it needs maybe 250 worth of body work frames mint has 139000 on the ticket paid 2000

Get a can of engine degreaser and spray the block, hose down after it's set for a bit. Check oil level, top off if necessary, run until warm then shut off and check for the leak. Could be something simple like a valve cover gasket.

Welcome to the B4U Task Force.

You factory intake is better than most flashy aftermarket Hot Air Intakes. The MSD coil is a waste of money unless you're boosted or high compression. Duals are hard to do on these as there isn't much room under there. Not saying it hasn't been done, but you're probably better off with a larger Y pipe...2.25-2.5", a good cat, and the muffler of your choice. You can get a single in dual out and have the dual look.

If I were you, starting on a new truck, I'd do a full on maintenance on it. All fluids, filters, tune up parts...all OEM, and see how it runs.

People poo poo the SS as nothing special...I think it's jealousy...I like mine. I bought it new in '96.
