    What Ls engine should I go with

    LS 500 hp would go with bigger size will be easier less compression can run on pump gas. Don’t discount carb or throttle body injection factory computer can be flashed but need someone with dyno and knowledge of system. Stock 5.3 300hp easy 400 hp 6.0 or 6.2 500 would be nice.

    Rust repair - order of replacement

    Floors first, rockers second and cab corners last. You will need to weld in temporary braces so when you cut cab and rockers out the rest will not distort. Make sure you have metal to weld to has cab been blasted to bear metal?

    Are the 6.2 diesels a good engine?

    6.2 is not a bad engine would use it if already installed military had plenty they are a workhorse not racehorse Cummings swap would get you there. Cummings would get you 20+mpg never do that with gas.
