Re: 72 GMC front clip

It is a Detroit Diesel designed 6.2L CUCV/HMMWV diesel that I turbocharged and added a high-output injection pump, HD head bolts and a main girdle. Instaed of the SM420 that came in truck, I added a NP435-GA HD 4-speed and a 14 bolt rearend. I painted it Detroit Diesel alpine green since this would be the period correct color Detroit was using in 1967. All the details and tons of pics are below in my build thread.
