Top pic is of my '69 before I tore my truck apart. It's a '79 GMC 454 out of a 3/4 ton.

Bottom pic is my engine bay now, minus the bay

I also have a serp belt drive for it, but it's off an '89 454 TBI motor (from a dually). Also running Hedman Elites. Very nice headers, but I had the motor mocked up to check clearance on them and ended up having to dimple the #1tube (drivers side) to clear the motor mount frame bracket
