your going to scrach your paint but keep up the good work....

gunshotwoundshurt · 05-19-2008, 10:17 PM

Its already done and back at home. Not one scratch.... Now the truck bed is a different story. Scratchs like you wouldnt beleive. But hey thats what its for. No trailer queen here. I use it for what is for. Hauling engines, trannies, anything. Matter of fact i just got finished putting on some adjustable air shocks.... blew out a drop shock when I picked up the new motor. My fault actually. Hit a big bump and bottomed her out pretty hard. She's all done and back on the road.

I really like that green. Don't see many of these trucks in that green. I like the gmc badge on the grille as well.

Good job and fired on the first crank.

How's the new power.

BTW, no idolizing the 350s.

Must be nice to have a lift!!!

chevymotocross : those are the orginal colors. Finished having it painted about 4 weeks ago.

boxrodz: nobody was more surprised than me. pays to do all the little things prior to dropping it in. I had alot of help from some good friends that live and breath nothing but chevy motors.... always good to have around.

gchemist: the lift was a big help. good friends are worth thier weight in gold.
