Re: 67-72 BigBlock 4x4s! Pos pics info here.

my cousin has a 72 chevy 3/4 ton 4x4 that HAD a big block installed when it was almost new back in '72. it was a hack job supposedly done by a local dealership.. they cut the frame rails for exhaust clearance and beat the firewall for clearance and cut the frame for power steering pully clearance. we yanked it out and reapired their screw ups then put a small block back in it. i had a 69 that had a big block hacked into it at one time that took a lot of work to bring back to normal.
i've seen a few 4x4s with big blocks installed that were done very nicely and looked factory, i guess it just depends on who does the install.
