His truck is actually the one that got me really wanting to do this, about the same color and all. I can't wait until its all done.

Yeah, we did that motor swap in record time. It went very quickly with all the tools right at hand. It's all the small details that take so much time. Billy handled the small finishing details. The Nelson Performance wiring harness made the swap simple.

Wiring the beast begins tomorrow. Allen's Harness is quality work, Shouldn't be too bad.

looks good! So the engine side of the mounts is from a 5.3, and the truck side was your stock mounts?

Ok,
On the engine I have some adapter plates such as these

Then I have the cups seen here.
