Sure! I have a truck parked right in the driveway!

 

Not A truck...THE truck!!!

 

Almost got you with that one, Ken!!

 

Pretty close, wasn't it?

So BK, in thinking about it though, I am worried that if I loaned it to you, I would be responsible for your stroke, or heart attack due to the stress and worry you might have over any possible damage to the truck while in your possession, so, being the kind, and thoughtful person that I am, I should just drive it myself.

 

Aren't you a sweet heart...I don't care what everyone else says about you.

 

And they say a lot! LOL!

 

Well played, Lanny. Well played....

 

Indeed, very well played. I do have a question... why the Corvette motor? I am not bashing the decision because I do like some old Chevy muscle cars myself, just curious as to why that over a Ford motor. Relaibility? something that you always wanted? easier to service on the road?

 

Thanks Lanny, I'll google it to see if I can find the show......

 

(bowing) Thank You, Thank You!

Thanks! The wife and I gave it a lot of thought.. we were going to buy either a GT500, or a vette with all the goodies, then I said that we were being silly, because we have this cool truck that we always wanted to fix up and use as our retirement truck.. we were definitely going to pull a rv with it, so at first, I was going to throw in a crate 351, or a 400 torquer small block, plenty of power, but not so hot on gas mileage, we hadn't even considered a coyote yet. Then, for the next 2.5 years, and several vacations), we researched the hell out of who was going to do the work for us. Scott Jones at Counts Kustoms took us through all the tech specs of many different motors, showing us stuff we had'nt even considered.. we looked at all kinds, and their sources, and their performance, reliability, as well as their customer service.. anyway, what ended up to be the best all around engine was the Turn Key LS1, according to us, anyway., and yes, should it break down, parts are in easy supply, not expensive, and I have a buddy that is GM cert. corvette mechanic (and most anything else that rolls in), who does all our work, except for oil changes, I like doing them myself. I can also take it back to Counts, should anything go crazy, as they back it up 100%. Counts also has a nice list of shops in various states, that should anything happen while traveling in one of them, we have a safe place to go.
How's that for a short story?

 

I have been busier than heads with their chickens cut off! have you found anything?
