Re: Mr Green Jeans - the 69 (or not) chevy, er gmc, project
Got a better side pic. Think it's hard to tell it's 3 inches shorter than a stock short bed at this point. What amazes me is that the the weight of the engine and cab wouldn't even push the A arms off the rubber snubbers with the 6 cylinder springs.

Been working on the 5.3 harness. This doesn't seem to be a bad job at all, using the LT1swap.com website for help. Looking at what's taken out, seems like I took out half the wires. Just have to add a fuse block and two relays now.

Re: Mr Green Jeans - the 69 (or not) chevy, er gmc, project
Getting the frame tomorrow. That means the 56 has to go live at my dads place for awhile because my garage just won't fit both trucks. Since I won't be driving the truck for a bit, in celebration, I went to a Pontiac/ GMC show and drags today. Saw some cool cars and finally got to see what she'd do in the quarter. I'm the right lane, number 515. Not bad but not good enough. It's a stock 5.3 with 3.08 gears, what do you expect? The 69 will be MUCH faster. It's going to have more compression, more cam, more gear, better heads, and more stall.
