Cool truck. Did you make the swap smog legal? What did you do to fit it in the truck? We like details LOL.

Re: 87 C10 thread
I'm looking for info on legit swaps. I know there is a thread about a k5 but I like to see what others have had to do as well. I'm trying to pick up a 87 R10 from a friend and Co sodering a 5.3 swap but want to know what I'm getting into to be legal. I'm not interested in doing hot smog every 2 years.

From what I’ve heard online it seems you would need all the emissions equipment off the donor but don’t quote me on it |

Re: 87 C10 thread
That's correct and that's why I asked if yours was a legal swap but sounds like it's not quite legal.
