Looks factory! Nice work!

Re: Eat Your Heart OUT !!
 

Thanks !! Haha
It set me back enough . It was a newer motor so it was more . I got a really good deal on it tho lol . It's just all the thing I need the 6 speed auto to work and everything thing else added up real quick ha
Rusty I was in the same boat as you .. I said F it and went this route

Re: Eat Your Heart OUT !!
 

Why? I still like mine!

Re: Eat Your Heart OUT !!
 

Are you going to give us the details????

Re: Eat Your Heart OUT !!
 

Fitz ... Really you come up like that and steal my thunder with that monster haha ... Thing a beauty ..

Well I got motor Trans for 3k which was a steal hahah odds and ends was an other 2k dash 800 . Lol thing is a beast ... Not a 572 lol but it's good enough for my DD . Lucky I had an evil genius help me .. Had to move the battery to the back . Still having a hard time setting the gas gage , still some odds and ends worked out but she runs and drives and sounds awesome

Re: Eat Your Heart OUT !!
 

Pssshhh! Neither of ya'll has got nothing on me -

BAM!!!

:lol::lol::lol:

Re: Eat Your Heart OUT !!
 

Looks good man! I just got the 6.0LSx and 4l80e installed in my 71. I think they look nice under the hood of these models. ;):chevy:

Re: Eat Your Heart OUT !!

69Rumbler ... that is sweet :metal:

Re: Eat Your Heart OUT !!
 

Chin up 69Rumbler, you may not have a 572 but you probably don't have that dash pad either. ;) Congrats on the install.

Re: Eat Your Heart OUT !!
 

nice work!!! absolutely love the gauges

Re: Eat Your Heart OUT !!
 

I just couldn't resist after your lead in. That Vortech looks good in that truck. For a DD that's a really good choice. Mine, you measure the mileage in gallons/mile but it sure does spank the boy-racer mustang guys!

Re: Eat Your Heart OUT !!
 

About 10 lightpoles to the gallon? :lol:;)

Re: Eat Your Heart OUT !!
 

Closer to six!
But it's how you get there that matters, not the destination. :metal::metal::metal:

Re: Eat Your Heart OUT !!
 

5K, (w/o dash) is a GREAT price!! I have more than that in my 383 and I have no FI, computer control, OD trans, etc. Hind sight.......

Good job!

Re: Eat Your Heart OUT !!
 

What kind of mileage are you getting out of, not a play run, but when your keeping your foot out of it.

Re: Eat Your Heart OUT !!
 

Yea I love my truck even more hahah ... It's awesome for a DD , I'm getting more them 10 light poles haha like 17 mpg realistically driving ..
Thanks guys it was one thing after an other with this paint is next just can't put a cheap paint job on it . So I need to save , hahah
Yea I got a good deal on it . It's good to be able to talk people down when it comes to paying them lol ... I wanted an 6.0 but for the price couldn't say no , and I'll have to drop a cam and I'll get an extra 100 Hp . So I'm ok with that .

Re: Eat Your Heart OUT !!
 

That is sweet one day I will be running that!%)

Re: Eat Your Heart OUT !!
 

What exhaust manifolds and motor mounts did you use? Did you modify the Engine harness or computer?

Re: Eat Your Heart OUT !!
 

And did you have to mod your frame for the exhaust manifolds?
