The 72 is a SWB 4x4, one owner factory air truck that I bought and it need a lot of work. I'm going to take it down to the frame and start from the ground up. I'm thinking of putting an LS into this one and I'm either going to use the 6.0 (easier to find and) or the 6.2 (harder to find and more expensive). I can't imagine I'm the first guy to want to do this swap, I'd love to hear from someone who has done this for any potential issues I may run into. Thanks!!'

I'm working on an ly6 6.0 swap into my 72 K/20 as we speak. The info is all there. Like everything else with these trucks it just takes time and money. That's a great looking truck!
