Low budget build without LS Swap

Installed the 98 and sold the 4l80e for double what I paid for the whole setup today. Dropped the engine in, runs much stronger then the old one, the exhaust even has bark to it now, idk how wore out the old engine really was, but this one has a lifter tick and low oil pressure on 10w30. story...

Low budget build without LS Swap

OK so what I've currently got going on is I've got a 97 c1500 with a 350/4l60e 3.73s (May go 4.10 6 lug 14 bolt because I infrequently tow, but when I do it's slightly heavier then the 10 bolt likes) that spun a rod bearing about ehhh 500? miles ago. Getting tired of hearing it beat itself to...

454 to 6.5 TD swap

Your 97 is a Vortec, makes all the difference in fuel mileage alone right there

454 to 6.5 TD swap
