    6.0 Swap turns into a Full blown Restoration (many pics)

    So I got bit by the 6.0 swap bug, my 383 stroker was loads of fun and would take down just about every LS truck out there. But I wanted it steet legal so the swap began.
    So I got to thinking when I do the swap why dont I just paint the front part of the frame.
    Then I get a second thought well if I do that why dont I just paint everyting under the hood.
    Then it hits me since Im going to pull the entire front clip and suspension and paint all of it why dont I pull the cab and paint the frame underneath.

    Well then thats where I relized mine as well call it a swap/restoration!

    All of the pics take u through the process and Im into it 4 months now!!

    Hopfully in another week I'll have the engine in and then the wiring fun begans.
    Oh I had budgeted like 4500 well I can kiss that goodbye...
