Re: Rebuilt or crate?

A lot depends on things like intended use,overall approach to the truck. If you aren't going to be racking up many miles,I think it's cool to rebuild what came in it,just because. I need to do something with my '72 motor. Just because,I want a 383 and decided to use the original 350 in it because everything will stay original except what's inside. The vibe of the truck is "what GM coulda done"...but didn't,a '72 K3500.
