Well im Cameron Miller from Stephenville, TX and im very exictied to be apart of the forums finally! Ive owned, restored, and sold a few GTO's and i have just started a 1970 c10/5.3l project. Its the first chevrolet ive attempted so wish me luck. Im also doing a frame off on a 1970 GTO (very slowly). heres a few pics...

brutalpontiac · 11-03-2007, 08:38 PM

thanks guys.. ill try to get some up to date pics of the truck and engine.

ive got a question ya'll might have the answer to.. where can i find a good wiring harness for the 5.3?

ive called several salvage yards and they either dont have them and won't have them or they are hanging on to them and wont get rid of them unless you buy the whole engine.

any suggestions?
