In first , the customer just want a powertrain to go back on the road with is truck but he dont say what engine put in it !!! He lost all the parts of this truck after many deplacements and 6-7 years of storage !!! So the choice are not difficult : a new technology in a old truck !!! My ideas is a 2006 cadillac escalade 6.0 with 4l60e 2wd on stock rearend , rat rod gaz tank in box , bbk headers , custom magnaflow exaust , custom drive-shaft , custom motors mount made with 02 f-body mount just re-desingned , all plastic stuff from escalade to make look good !!!
