Re: New project - keeping it in the family

Looks like you have a pretty solid truck to start with! I agree that with a little elbow grease, that paint will shine.

Also, look on Facebook marketplace for some small blocks. I found my 283 there for 400 bucks and it was complete from the intake to the oil pan. I got a great deal there

Good luck on your project, I'll be following along
