Re: Im sick, very very sick
It looks like you have a very bad case of Chevyietis and the only cure is to use Iatraliptic.

Re: Im sick, very very sick
Ummm. My GF. If she didn't have one, she wouldn't be my GF for very long. Just MHO. BTW, you didn't specify 'truck(s)'. On the other hand, "Nice score, Dood!"

Re: Im sick, very very sick
Thanks guys, more pics coming soon
Andy, it has a highly modified frame & it has been relieved for the engine to set down pretty far, its also about 6" back from stock SBC location Its a SWB & it has some fleet bed sides that came with it, but one is pretty much toast, so that leaves me with basically one bedside I plan to put a step side on it As far as the frame work already done, from what I has seen of it its pretty good, there is a lil more bracing to do & some mounts to build for stuff & then build a back half for it |

Re: Im sick, very very sick
Id be interested in the engine swap details also, I've done two Cad BB swaps so far and used all GM parts to make it a bolt in deal but its always interesting to see how others have addressed the challenge!

Re: Im sick, very very sick
No nosebleed whenever you get to where you can drive it.....Nice score. I'm guessing you saved a bunchabucks over what it would have cost you to build it to the same point. Thats the nice thing about unfinished projects.

Nice stock Caddy motor. The 76 EFI was an interesting animal.
