5.3L GenIII /TH400 swap - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I bought this setup, after seeing it installed in '68 short step's truck:

With that said:

Pros: It looks sweet and comes with everything you need.
Cons: You gotta move your battery to another location.

I am using a stock auxillary battery tray to move the battery to the passenger side of truck

Notes:

RE: your fuel line setup: Very creative. BE AWARE: you need to be able to put at least 50PSI to the fuel rail, make sure your pump can generate that. Your engine should have a regulator built into the rail if it's truck/newer.

Don't forget hose clamps

be sure your fuel line can handle 50PSI pressure without blowing up
