yeah just couldnt justify spending an extra 3k on paint and body to have it look slightly better when I could use that money for a motor swap, suspension parts etc

Yeah prolly, I have access to an 02 2500 hd donor truck with Lq4 6.0/80e trans if i choose to go that route. Throw some heads, cam, headers, etc on it and could be making good power.
