I have some newer photos that I will post soon. Trying to figure out how to do all this. I plan to put a ls engine and transmission. So I will be asking for advice from the experts here. Thanks in advance chris
Its your truck, build it to your hearts content...but ....

A 468 BB is a monster...putting an LS in may actually downgrade the performance...

Why do you want to get out of the 468?

BTW...late model auto transmissions will bolt up to a BB...if its the overdrive you are looking for...

If you put in an OD unit...it better be built tough for a 468...

Just my 2 cents worth...
