Re: Newbie : 69'C10 LWB to Buick 455/Th400
Thanks guys.
My plan for now is to do all the needed patch panels/rust repair.
Then finish shortening the bed Side panels.
I want to send off the cab and all the panels /fenders hood etc to
My painter buddy for some patina finishing work incl.clear coat sealing.
Since I cant 100% decide on the motor yet I want to get the chassis done
Then possible test fit both engine options I have.
Both engines have there +&-
The buick 455 is a ready to drop in Big Block which is cool AF I think.
The LS is a proven "modern" engine that provides a lot of reliability due to its design.
However I would carb the LS simply because I have the parts.
For right now the BBB is the cheaper option for me since I dont need any additional parts, as I would need them for the LS ( it adds up).
