good luck bro. I think you should keep it. unless you promise to buy a 60s muscle car when you get back

 

Well It looks like I am keeping it trying to find a stock motor for it, even a l99 if i could

 

Picked up a caprice 4.3 lt1. LEast it will be driveable. and might knock down some decent gas mileage. And then after i get my enlistment bonus Get the big block in the car

 

not to hog your thread... but i have one of these 8.1 motors complete in my garage... pm me its forsale

 

Whats wrong with it and how much you want for it?

 

its out of a 2004 3/4 ton truck... has 16,000 miles on it... has everything on it except harness and throttle body... it was out of my buddies truck... the motor was under waranty and he works for the dealer and bought this motor back and i bought it off of him for 500... he got it replaced cause he said it had a tick in the bottom end... so i dont know anything about it... someone make me a deal on it and ill post some pics tomorrow...

would rather trade...

thanks ed... sorry for thread hogging

 

Any progress here?

I'm taking a crash course in 8.1 swap 101...and learning much.

I'm running a late 8.1 dbw in a 69 Vette attached to a Richomd six....and hopefully side pipe headers.

Using a modified Painless harness for a LQ DBW - running into some minor headaches on knock sensors...and wire connector for the ECT.

My oil pan is at the fabricators getting shortened...and I also ran medium duty truck mounts like you did on your truck to clear the a/c on my X member.

 

Well i have been in army basic traing but i hope to get busy on it soon. Gotta luv bonus money

 

Still for sale I would be interested. I am going to start collecting these things

 

Whats up with this? Pictures?

 

Well if my orders for korea stay permanent. I might sell the T/A. I am tempted to buy an ultima GTR

 

Car is for sale if anyone is local to ga/fl area pics and video
