1972 GMC Farm Find LS Swap
I've had this truck for almost two years now. Original 350/TH400/AC cab truck that I acquired from a gentleman that used it as a farm truck for several years. The original 350 had been replaced in favor of a crate 350 in the 80s. Needless to say, it has been a bit wheezy since. Still has a noticeable chop at idle but at times I couldn't tell if it was a perfect miss or the cam lol.
When the time came, I ultimately decided to go through with the LS Swap. I obtained a motor/trans/harness PCM for a gentle $900 locally out of an '01 Silverado. I preferred a pre-03 motor to have a DBC setup.
Here's what I'm working with. The truck has some rocker panel issues but other than that, there's really no other trouble spots. The patina is what sold me on the truck.
