69 Olive Stepper LS Swap

[blkcorvair]

So over a dozen years ago I restored my 69 Stepside. Every screw and bolt restored and put back where it belonged. I was only the second Owner at the time. I originally kept it with its 250 i6, and 3spd on the tree. I soon after installed a 2004r, Power Steering and Power Brakes. But shortly after that I mistakenly sold it. Fast foward nearly a dozen years and that buyer reached out and in turn sold it back to me. I have been driving it everywhere I can since and loving every minute of it. But its time for another upgrade. I have been in the last weeks sourcing parts for my LS Swap. This will likely take about a year to complete. Ill get working on the new Drivetrain while still enjoying the truck until its all ready to swing over.

So Far Ive gotten
2013 Vortec 5.3 from Tahoe with 53k Miles
2008 4L80e from Chevy Express
2010 Camaro Factory Manifolds and Cats with 10k miles
1972 5 Lug Rear Axles and Front Brakes

I Plan to do a Vintage style Swap with Single Plane Manifold, EFI and a small cam. Im Planning on running the Cats and have my eyes on the Black Heart Header back Exhaust 2.5" currently

Ill be lowering the truck a few inches, Disc Brakes, Larger Wheels, Etc..

Ive gotten alot of idea reading through threads here and over as LS1tech
