Re: LS1 into a 73 cheyenne

I agree it has been sitting wrapped in a tarp for sometime now. Before i install it i will do a thorough break down and clean all the components like the heads and valves, new trans seal gasket etc. and repaint the intake manifold and valve covers, as they got a bit scratched. As for the engine im not sure what direction i will go with it i want to paint it grey like aluma grey or blue but if i decide to paint it i really dont want to invest alll the hrs into it prepin it masking it, i might just give it a good pressure wash and leave it as is.
