Was the interior make up of the 1959 283 truck engine (cam, pistons, ect.) the same as the 283 corvette engine? Thanks, Jimmy

In terms of the shortblock, it appears the same parts were used.Bill Clupper #618- Top

It depends what you mean by "truck". If you're talking about a light truck application (series 10-30) then the engines were pretty much the same as car.
However, MD and HD truck applications usually used a "roller" type chain and used hardened exhaust valve seat inserts in the heads.In Appreciation of John Hinckley- Top
