I plan to put a 4l60e in it with a 5.3 ls motor. Put a new cab on it paint job and that should be it

I see you put all of your "Plans" in one sentence. Remember that, when down the road, you look back, and say, Wow, it all seemed so simple. Only a few things.
These old dudes seem to take on a life of their own when we start adding "Well, while I am there I might as well",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
very difficult to stay on task and not let them snowball.
I am in the middle of one now paint the cab inside and out, and "not restoring the entire interior".
We'll see, it's not over yet. :waah:
good luck on the build and just keep putting one foot (or bolt) in front of the other.

Thank you! I'm trying to get the ball rolling here and staying on task is going to be the key for sure
