Re: What to Do??

It also depends on if there are any other goodies that you may want to buy for it(the Jimmy).

Re: What to Do??

I'm with Huck. Why not find a low mileage take-out 5.7 with 4L60E? For about $2500 you can have a late model motor, FI, overdrive, AND the serpentine drive setup.

Just depends on down time I guess. You really need a second vehicle to pull the swap off realistically IMO. But that should leave you $3500...
