You've got a really nice truck, a good story behind it, and sounds like an even better family. Looks like our paint codes may be the same, wish mine would buff out like yours, I've got too much surface rust. Member SS TIM gave me some awesome paint code info, posted here, http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...=511283&page=2
Good luck with the rest of the build, its turning out beautifully.

Truck looks great can't wait to get the suspension and brakes swapped on my 68 GMC. And hello from a fellow Northeast Mississippi member.

Any updates?

Just curious, did you ever change the power steering fitting to reduce pressure/flow? Also, did you ever swap to the V8 stands? I'm running my 5.3 on the 6 cyl stands and it works good for me.

The Tahoe I got my engine from had hydro boost brakes. The line that came from the pump to the hydro boost unit screwed right into my gearbox without problems. It does have very easy steering but partly due to the original steering wheel. I used the 6 cylinder stands in the original location and they worked great.
