Looking for a 73-87 LSx swap

So I've been trying to get this project off the ground for some time. I'm looking for a 73-87 with a LSx swapped into it. Would be best if the mounts are made by a popular company so that there is some kind of standard for fit. I would need it for around seven working days (maybe less) and the owner will receive the first set off the line for free.

PM me if interested.

Thanks!,
Jamie

Wish I was closer. I would let you have mine for a month if you need it. Hey Dennis, let him use your truck and then send me the headers! LOL!!

A good crossthread is better than Loctite any day.

Life is not about what you have, but who you have to share it with.

menace is not going to do it? Lets say you did find a truck how long would it take for someone to be able to order a set?

Dennis is about a 10 hour drive away from me.

Once I get a truck in here it takes about a week to design the headers (could be less) another to build tooling and gear up production and around 8-10 weeks to make it in a box.
