Hey looking forward to meeting other gm gearheads and learning tips to sweeten my truck. Going old school big block on my swb. Almost done with motor rebuild and looking to lower it and start interior refresh project. Paint comes last for me.

I am still proceeding through final assembly on the 496 stroker kit. Waiting on my correct pickup tube for the oilpump and it should be done and reinstalling this weekend. Heres a few pics of it as i started tear down. I spun a bearing on the 454 and gouged crank so i bought a kit. My pics seem too big. I will upload pics when i can
