Well dad is out. He is feeling better than ever. Moving like he hasn't in years!

Not sure how but everything worked perfect and I was able to keep the truck. Looking for a frame if anyone has one with a title. Will buy now if you have, needs to be a 73-79 frame crewcab. Does not matter whether it is a 4x4 or 2wd or condition. Can be rusted out. Just let me know.

Update on the truck though. Will get a video up soon. Running flawlessly, timing is still a bit off so back fires at high revs, front brakes were bled and work!!!! Electric pump is now successfully pulling fuel again from tank. No oil leaks and idles and once warm drops properly in rpms. Stays cool as far as I know.

Was driving it around parking lot, not sure what gearing it has but for a big truck it puts me back in my seat all the way through 2nd. Not enough room to go any faster. Need to do tranny and some minor body work on cab. Buying a refurb bed from lkq.

Not sure what you all will think of this swap but I just plan on getting the motor to daily reliable driving as I plan on swapping it. I was thinking of doing a swap for a dta360. Prob gonna use a z6 but would like some feedback.

Will I have to cut firewall or y'all think it will fit? It is ~44" vs a 460bb which is ~34 or so I think. Of course electric fans are a must. If I need to do a rear mount radiator I have to but would rather not. I Am not dog housing this truck though!
