Nice start, but it would be nicer if you took that boat anchor engine and trashed it. I know I will get harassed twice the HP for half the price That is no longer valid with so many people making parts for small and big blocks.

First let me say that the lowered pickup looks good.
Second, get rid of that crap motor! Ugly. If you're going to put a Chevy into a Ford at least use the new LSx motors where they fixed it to be more like a sb Ford so it would work a little better. Or keep the hood closed.
When I see an old 350 Chevy motor in an otherwise nice hot rod I always figure, "oh, that must have been built in the '70s." Then I keep walking rather than taking a closer look. When did GM last even use that motor? 25+ years ago?

Ha ha, you probably don't need a nine inch rear diff behind the Chevy motor! Actually that makes sense as well, since you can't use the bed any more or tow anything. The truck will look good, though.
