My truck currently has a 307 with a Rochester quadrajet and factory intake, with a built 700r4 transmission (didn't know if I was going to stay carb'd or not). I got to roll this engine over 100k miles several months after I got it, and it's been my daily for over a year now. It'll also be getting a new windshield and a rubber kit and such while it's down for the swap.
I'll get pictures of the truck up here soon, and will update progress as I go.

Welcome.

As far as the LS swap, go down to the bottom of this page and you will see the "Forum Jump" box. Click on the small arrow on the right side of the box and scroll down through all of the different forums until you find the "LSx Swaps" forum. Everything you ever wanted to know about LS swaps there....
