[68GMCCustom]

Thanks all. And yes...this project WILL be finished...or at least the chassis/drivetrain. I won't be doing anything (other then some spotty rust removal) to the body for a while. Will have to wait for the C-5's too.

I bought a crate motor that had everything on it but no harness and no ECM. I knew I wanted to go carb'd on it so whatever the cost was going to be...was whatever the cost was going to be. Later I decided to sell off the EFI/VVT stuff that was on it. The intake was about $450 I think, the 6LS-2 MSD box $329 fires the OEM coil packs, Holley HP 750 $489, GM fuel pump $89 plys misc. items. I also bought a new idler pulley, starter, alternator, and ps pump as they didn't come with the accessory drive bracket. I also need a new cam as the VVT one needs to come out and go to another member.

If someone had their own carb (that would be a good fit) already, they could save the carb cost. And btw...there are cheaper intakes for both the cathedral port and even the new rectangular port heads as long as a single plane is OK.
