SmokinFive9 4x4

I have some pics up on my progress in my gallery now, as soon as Admin approves it that is :-) I'll finish it up this weekend hopefully and get some better quality pics when it's finished. All I had right now is my camera phone. Just wanted to hear some feedback.

Nice pics, but is that 8.3L going in your truck?

no I only wish, that was a motor that I rebuilt for a customer. at the time there were some people on here that wanted some pics and dimensions and stuff so I tried to oblige. Don't think that I didn't think about it lol.

Was your truck a gasser before the 94 engine? Looks good.

your not going to know if your truck is running or not with all that insulation and you cant go wrong with a diamond plate dash...

thanks for the comments. I gutted the entire thing and undercoated it twice with some spray undercoating/sound deadner from Advance Auto. Then I coated the entire thing with RV heat/sound insulation, 2 layers on the firewall and tunnel. Then the carpet of course will be on top, so it should be pretty quiet with the windows up.

Bgilbert the cab was off a gasser yes, it's a mutt. The truck started out as a 90. but the body was way rough, and the previous owners rolled it, so on went an 87 cab. Nose off a 93 (they did that) The frame is a 90 4x4 350 originally with a Non IC motor. It's actually registered as an 87 2wd 318 3/4ton. Scary stuff, I've asked about it and noone seems to care, the highway patrol did an inspection on it and they gave me plates and a registration so ok then. :-)
