Hello all,
First post here. my name is Jason and I live south of the Detroit area. I have a 1998 Chevy Silverado, ext cab 305 vortec, it was my daily and now its moved to more of a project idea. 302k miles and babied its whole life. 2wd. its pretty much been my only driver since I got my license, i love it more then anything lol. Anyway, I want to do an engine swap with possibly a 383 or a 454 (same mounts I think?)
I don't have millions, but can drop a little to stay in budget, I don't have Facebook, where I can get leads and all my dads car guys have retired since. I'm looking for someone reliable whom I can trust to do engine work, then do some body work, cuz after all I live in the rust belt and rust does happen. I don't want a full out drag truck or lowered and jacked up or anything like that, just a street sleeper. I'm mechanically inclined, but with work and family its tough to live in the garage at times.
Thoughts?
