Default Project JUNKER

It's a 54 with 5.3 block bored to 3.903, zo6 cam, stock 317s, 4l80e, 9" rear, intercooled t76 sitting on a s10 frame.

It's been on the road for over 3k miles. It's my daily driver.

Ahhahaha...nice man.
My old man has a 55 5 Window thats been sitting on his place for as long as I can remember...been kicking around the idea of a 6.0 swap for it. Somewhere along the line someone put a Ford 9" under it.

Kick *** beater. Kinda hard to be a sleeper when you can hear a turbo spool!

Can't say I like the exhaust. But it is differant.

The whistle is loud, everyone thinks it's a cummins. The drone is not as bad as my 4th gen with open down pipe under the car.
