Re: Build thread for 80 stepside

If your wanting to upgrade the engine then I'd go for the 5.3 swap...use whatever trans comes with it..most probably a 4l60...just be sure to get it complete...the earlier yrs of production have less headaches to overcome....no DOD or afm....if its dbw be sure to get the gas pedal that matches the engine throttle...
will be a fun project..
