I know everyone is gonna get on me about the LS engine, but to me putting an LS engine in one of these truck is like putting a late model sportside bed on these trucks just don't seem right or look right
I do rather the ol school look on these trucks. Nothing against modern engines as they are ultra reliable and dependable and for long term drivability they can't hardly be beaten.

It would be tough not to install a modern LS as they almost cost the same as ol school engines.
