JJ,
What's your ultimate goal for the truck? Is it to lay frame? To be a "G Machine?" - Is that even an expression used anymore?

Also, will it be a full on show truck or be driven regularly?

Seems like a lot of changes have been made. From Chevy to GMC, from clipped stock frame to two different frame/suspension setups, from SBC to LS, from stepside to Cameo.

I'm certainly NOT the one who should mention this observation but isn't this redundancy costing you an arm and a leg?
