But heck, the guy's avatar says "LS SWAP" so I just assumed this was a hot-rodded truck with conventional steering box. Oh well...sorry for the bad advice.

My avatar is the license plate from my other truck, a 1971 C10 with an LQ4/4L80e.

My 1950 3100 will be a very mild restomod- 235, T5 with open driveline and 3.73 rear out of a 1980 Camaro. Stock front end and leaf springs all around. Look will be stock. Mariner Blue paint job, factory seat, black bed wood. Will post some pics when I’m on my laptop.
