If anyone followed my build thread you know the story and my plans with the truck but basically it was built to look 100% stock but it has a 2001 fuel injected 5.3 from a silverado and mated to a 319 borg warner OD trans with 4.10’s in the rear. Also has AC and a radio! I put A LOT of miles on this truck and its my favorite build to date.

I appreciate all your choices. I'm working on a barn find myself. So far, sticking with the 235, but certainly envious of your 5.3 (like in my 2000 Sierra). | | |
