    New here whats up

    Hey whats up guys found this site by searching how to swap a v8 into my truck. Gotta 99 nbs 2wd short bed silverado. Did the car show scene for awhile had it bagged, but have since sold the airride and went to a 5/8 drop with full hd clip with intentions of swapping a 5.3 in finally instead of the 4.3 with 190,xxx on it getting slower by the minute lol

    Heres a pic up my front end swap and when it was bagged. Will have new updated pics of the truck soon as the beds back on in a few days.

    Welcome. Truck looks good buddy, I'm about to post up some pics of that engine you are wanting. I have an HD hood almost ready to go on mine and I'm thinking of a certain grille and bumper combo that is a little different from just the all HD stuff. Buy that engine so that I can make it happen!

    Welcome. 190K is nothing for a 4.3....mine has 214K. The V8 swap is a sweet idea though. Chill the language too BTW.

    Thanks for the heads up spend all my time on gmfullsize forum and anything goes there. lol Well my 4.3 was a strong motor but it seems to be getting worse and half my gauges even function and ive checked all wires fuses and components. I suspect the pcm has alot to do with it but dont want to waste my money trying.
