Re: Project Mr. Green Jeans (now 5.3 LS turbo build!)
Sounds like you got the top end figured out. What ever happened with the fog lights?

Kinda stalled out as a project thread, but added a Tank 3000 converter and 3.73 gears with Tru-trac posi unit.

Re: Project Mr. Green Jeans (now 5.3 LS turbo build!)
bnoon, glad updated so it popped up this thread. Read the whole thing. Really like the look of the green with white and it looks like the paint cleaned up well. Those era correct foglights were perfect, especially yellow with the sour apple paint. I hope that the replacement ones you found look as good. Good luck with the house flip, etc. LT7A

Subscribed! Cant wait to see how this progresses. Our trucks aren't too terribly different (or, wont be, when the snow finally stays away long enough for me to get my swap going.)

Having trouble with the LS9 cam swap (going back to the LS9 cam from a Summit copy of the GM Hot Cam). 5/16" steel rod won't hold the dang lifters up. Time for some small magnets. :-(
