try an inquiry here. [email protected]

Small out fit who specialize in 6 cyl GMC and Chev.
They were a great help for parts and advice on my 248 GMC.

All the bigger online outfits pretty much dropped the GMC stuff as the demand is much less the Chevy stuff.

Try Egge machine. They used to have gmc engine parts. Also I was able to get piston rings for my 228 from Hastings mfg in Michigan. John

Agree on EGGE and ROCKAUTO has engine bearing, gaskets, rings but stock varies daily/weekly........watch for shipping $ on Rock.

If you're smart enough to take it apart, you darn well better be smart enough to put it back together.

Also try Patrick’s over in AZ. I haven’t used them in a few years but they did have a good selection of parts for GMC engines.

Call Ron at Falcon Golbal 800-238-2508. He was able to round up parts for the 228 I am rebuilding.

I have used Terrill Machine in De Leon Texas for several old engine rebuilds. Good selection and better pricing than Egge.
