Has anyone put a 383 LT1 in a 65 GMC
 

I can get my hands on a LT1 fairly cheap, has anyone installed one of these in a 60's GMC? Any tips or info would help

LT1 Burb put a LT1 in his 'burban.

I recall a handful of other fellas in here with LT1 fever as well.

I am in process right now. Should have it in by next weekend. I will have a full write up in my build thread. Of course the engine is no biggie, it bolts like any other small block. Additional things you will need are;

Programmed PCM - remove VATs, EGR, etc and program for what is inside.
Harness - either stand alone or rewired factory harness
Fuel pump - high pressure fuel pump (45-50 psi) either in tank or external. To go with this you will need a return line to the tank also.
