If you want to tow stuff, can't beat a big block. 396, 400, 454 any will bolt in. Same motor mounts will bolt in place of a small block without changing anything. Same distributer, many parts are the same and stock they have tons of torque for towing. A little more weight but you will end up with air bags and slammed anyway so weight won't be an issue. Lol good luck!

Oh yea, WELCOME!!! You can't beat this site for anything you ever want to know about GM trucks. These guys know Everything! Great to see your very first post of what will surely be many. Enjoy!
