I've got Patrick's catalogue and see some items listed but I am wondering if any of you guys out there have anything, or any tricks, etc??

I don't have a good answer for you and I suspect that's why no one else has responded either. I've not heard of anyone hot rodding a 228 or 248 since the 270 and 302s are enough bigger to make a big difference, and they aren't that hard to find.
As far as I know the external parts that fit the bigger jimmy motors will also fit your 228, but really I'm only guessing.
I'd watch ebay if I were serious about finding GMC performance stuff, but I'd expect it to be old and expensive.

It's true. I really don't do anything but browse the Internet looking for trouble... | | | | | Joined: Apr 2002 Posts: 1,571 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Apr 2002 Posts: 1,571 | I'm not sure, but Clifford's might make some things, and I've heard that Offenhauser can make any item that they have ever made, if you're willing to wait for them to get around to it. | | | | | Joined: May 2001 Posts: 7,438 Extreme Gabster | | Extreme Gabster Joined: May 2001 Posts: 7,438 | I was hoping someone would come up with a good answer. As far as I can find Patrick is the only one selling new stuff unless you want to put a Wayne's 12 port on it. | | |
