Okay, I have a love of Chevy trucks as most do here. I have restored or at least owned every 60's make and model and a few earlier and later.
My first truck I had was a 69' CST 3/4 ton Texas bed. I had no idea they were not a common truck and since then have looked for another.
It happened. a friend had one on a trailer getting read to crush it and gave it to me. the problem is it had a thrown rod and I only have a LS1 police Interceptor to install in it with a TH 700 from a 90 g20 van. I have no idea what electric problems I should expect. I prefer the old school motors but are finding them increasingly rare. My experience with engines are pretty much limited to the pre mid 80's.
This will be my last build. I figure stopping on the same model as I started is fitting. We are planning on building this one in the Multiple Sclerosis colors and using it at shows to raise awareness, as MS is why I am retiring building trucks.
Any ideas, advice, or knowledge on converting to the LS1 would be great.
Thanks,
CHEVYS FOREVER
