I'm Awesome
I (like many here) like the GMT 400 chassis, styling, ride, well pretty much everything.
I have a friend that works at the local GM Dealer and comes up w/ odd deals. He found a 6.0l out of a 06 k2500 w/ only 60k miles, guy was in for a new tranny and just got all new crate engine and tranny.
So now here's my question, if I was to do an ls swap into a gmt400 what years are easiest? 96-00? 454 or 350 base?
Do I need a donor truck? If so does the year/set up matter (2wd work trucks are dime a dozen).
I also have a built 96 4x4 4l80 to put behind it. (Was saving for a 6.5 project but I'm about down to all nv4500 trucks)
I want a crew cab 4x4 and I have a thing about not canalizing a 6.5 but I will pull a 350 or 454. I would make do w/ a k1500 3rd door and stick the 4l80 in.
