Well as it turns out the truck is actually a 65 because today I was handed the title. Along with a copy of the build sheet and the original handbook. The two things I'm happiest about are the 4.10 gears and the locker to go with it.

I was at that 6066guy website and found the 305 that was in it weighed about 800 pounds dropping my now engine free chassis to a neat 3530 pounds. After relocating the batteries to the rear which is like removing weight from the vehicle it will feel lighter but not. The saddle tanks and stock tank will go bye-bye shedding some more weight and adding a glass hood will drop it a bit more. I figure with me and the LS in it I should be at 3850 pounds.
