I hear ya. Little 6 runs like a top. But i do have an all aluminum LS i been gathering parts for. Just got heads back today. Miss that old school chop i grew up with. As soon as i got it built this old girl will up for sale and go down the road to a needy engine bay.

You have it looking good. Any problems with the 5.5-7 drop as far as turning radius/scrubbing?

Got me a remote battery box for a 34/78 optima redtop battery and a battery of course . Got plans to mount on outside passenger frame rail under bed. Also waiting for a derale remote transmission oil cooler with electric fan. Wanna put them both on the passenger side out of the way. Just another step at cleaning up the engine compartment. After this gets done and i can afford it im planning on a boyds tank with aeromotive 340.
