Re: Mostly stock vs. significant mods; Daily Driver

If it was mine with that budget.... I would let the shop do the things you cannot.... like paint, body and mechanical. You do stuff like easy bolt on parts.
I would do a 2/4 drop and a 5.3/4L60E and disk conversion. Put nice wheels on it and leave the body and interior as stock as possible.

For a DD that you are going to rely on with little mechanical abilities I will always recommend the new newer LS engines.

But... that's just me
