new work truck...out with the 6...in with the 454...pics

Finally had time to finish up the 454 swap. Got the 6 out and the 454 in.
What a difference...I can actually go up a hill. Taking bets on how long the T350 holds up (or how soon the rear grenades) .
Here are some before and after shots. I got the truck in February...factory M&M green with a 6 and PS,PB, and cold air. Now white.
Here ya go:

Intergrated head. One of Chevys "better" ideas. Always screwing up, and cracking, and costly repairs.

Thanks for the kind comments guys.
Next up is a 4.5"/5" drop...I have the DJM kit, just haven't found time to get it done.
I'll keep the rally's for now.
