What are the plans for this engine, Mike? A can of gunk and freshening up, or are you going to build it up some?

*edit * n/m finally caught up. Great buy!

Mike, congrats on the eninge fine. A friend just picked up 2005 5.3, trans and computor with 81,000 miles for $1200, which I thought was a great deal. Your front end looks great, my son and I installed one of their units in a 32 F**d, and it looks super...Jim

Re: Slosh Tubz new company project "Square Peg" frame laying 1987 GMC Jimmy

thats a real steal of an engine , i informed once about a truckversion of a 6.0 (LQ) and the guy wanted 5000 euro
sure would safe some cash to live in the states where those engines are a little more common

i got a job again and having fun at it too

idea's for the trucks and the order of things to do are taking shape and get closer to being realized , a few more months and i be able to start building for real

i complete 2 of the trucks intoo running fashion one custom and one basicly stock the thirth will be sacrificed for parts

Re: Slosh Tubz new company project "Square Peg" frame laying 1987 GMC Jimmy

probably was power washed...when I got my 5.3 it was pretty clean then we degreased and power washed it and it looked brand new.

Builds coming along good man...
