    Cool.

    The LS swap has replaced the smallblock as the defacto engine swap. Which is fine, except that anyone choosing to use the sbc seems to catch flak. There's plenty of power in an L31 based engine for mild projects and the engine is a stock replacement for older, smaller SBC's.

    There's a 2wd '70 longbox for sale down the road but it's got plenty of New England rust-through as part of the price. I'll pass...

    I own a few of these trucks, all GMC's though , a '70 , 2-'71's and a '72 , they are by far my favorite of the GM lineup .

    IMHO , they should all have GMC front end styles though , love the 4 headlights .

    That one looks to have a 67 hood on a 68-up front end .

    Nice trucks

    My neighbor up the street has a nice 67 C10 with a (carbureted) 6.0 5spd in it. I'm trying to get him to EFI it...and add a line lock as you'll see from the video. The "burnouts" are weak! But it does run good.
