I have been lurking but never made a build thread. I figure I should start one since I keep changing stuff I may forget what all I have done. A brief intro to where I am now.

-Truck was a college grad present from family members. It came with a 292/4speed 5.14 gear treel pulling special. Its life was mostly spent hauling a camper (not a camper special I learned from you guys :p)

-I got it, ripped the drive out and first put a 383/th350 combo in and rarely drove it since I couldn't tune it or something else

-then the rear axle was swapped to a 14 bolt with new trailing arms since they rotten and broke.
-New to me 1979 from spindles and disc brakes.
-started air ride but never completed yet as I am changing my mind again.

Plans:
I have sold (gave away almost) the old driveline and am in the parts process of a LQ4 turbo 4l80 build. I am very uneducated in it all so I am learning as it go.

So far the parts list is 317 heads with BTR kit, trunion upgrade, stage 2 turbo cam, s475 turbo, motor is from a 2002 2500.
-power steering
-complete 79 crossmember swap so I get better linkage.
-fuel cell
-hydroboost brakes
-finish air ride

enjoy
