[QUOTE="FarmTrk, post: 8575, member: 943"] I have finally managed to get my mitts on a truck, with LS power. Can finally check that off my bucket list. The FarmTrk is: 2002 GMC Sierra SLE 6.0L LQ4 4L80E 4X4 235,000 Miles Regular Cab Long Bed This truck has survived the abuse and neglect of being a farm truck for 10+ years, and deserves to see some care. I have pegged the trans temp gauge on a few occasions, and the engine coolant temp gauge has also been pegged after obliterating a heater-core hose last summer. There isn’t a single body panel that remains straight, which is a plus IMO. This truck will need some TLC, but to me it’s worth it. The truck is bone-stock, but hopefully not for long. My plans are: [LIST] [*]Pull engine and trans for a rebuild [*]Bore and stroke the engine to 408CI [*]Beef up the trans and transfer case [*]If I can find a solid week, pull the cab and bed from the chassis to scrape and paint the chassis [*]Paint the underside of the bed and cab [/LIST] I have plenty of ideas, but so little time or $... This is the link to the 18 pictures of the FarmTrk, these are high-resolution and are too big to post to the forum. Follow the link to open the Google Drive folder.
