Re: Surf Blue
Finally pulled the trigger on the engine swap I've been talking about doing. I decided to go with the ZZ502.............so I ordered it today.
I also ordered the GM performance parts serpentine belt setup ,and some Sanderson ceramic coated headers to go along with it. Hopefully it will all be here next week , I'll post pics when it all gets here.

Re: Surf Blue
The new motor showed up along with the serpentine belt setup, still waiting on the headers though. I pulled the small block out and I'll start installing the new goodies soon.

Re: Surf Blue
I hate you!!!!! I am so jealous of how cool your truck is and how fast you get stuff done. That is one sweet ride! now you have to start taking videos so we can hear that big motor and be even more jealous.

![]() The headers showed up today along with a new elec. fuel pump and a few other small things I needed. I took the trans. crossmember and my motor mounts to work and painted them flat black. I'm going to paint the frame rails and anything else in the engine compartment flat black while I have it all torn apart. I'll post more pics in a few days when I drop the motor in.
