Re: Just got my LS 6.0 running!!
That truck is gorgeous. Love the 6.0 swap. I am planning the same thing. Gonna be a while before mine is done, but I am always happy to see trucks like these. Keeps me motivated for the long road ahead.

Re: Just got my LS 6.0 running!!
Nice looking truck and engine! I see you are running the MSD Atomic LS EFI. Just wondering how easy it is to install. Where did you mount the control module and are you happy with it so far. I'm considering this over the factory setup because of the bulky wiring and ECM of the factory setup on the LS. Putting it in a 69 Camaro.
Thanks, Bryan

Re: Just got my LS 6.0 running!!
Oh man, I just found this thread. It's a great looking truck! I'm doing a very similar build now. Do you happened to have a build thread for this one somewhere? I couldn't find it in your sig.

Re: Just got my LS 6.0 running!!
It has been awhile since I have seen this truck in any pictures. Great to see it now has an LS.

Re: Just got my LS 6.0 running!!
Nice job on the swap. Good looking truck for a good looking running motor. I just finished my 6.0 a month ago. I love it.
