Not Corvette related but, doing a LS swap in my 1966 C10. Having lots of fun in the garage on this one šŸ˜!! I am building a 5.3L from scratch, and learning lots, as I never did a complete rebuild.

Some VERY COOL parts cam in today šŸ˜. Going to be running a Holley intake and fuel rails, small block Chevy valve covers adapters, and 5.3L throttle body turned upside down on adapters to intake, with a old style air cleaner. Going to mount the coils in the back to look like a distributor. All fuel injection, drive by wire throttle body, electronic cruise control, etc. So much fun !!!

Of course everything painted Chevrolet Orange !!!! šŸ‘

Still looking for Small Block Chevy valve covers & Air Cleaner..... if anyone has anything?
 
nice ! , what would look cool is if you put on the 348 / 409 covers and make it look like the W - block , I believe there are adapters to put those covers on overtop.

I have my transmission rebuilt and readyšŸ˜ 4L60e out of a 2001 2wd truck. Getting excited for this project!! Starting to think the 66 would be a cool truck to haul the C4 to the track.... no drop spindles, or air bags for this guy!

:thumbs: You definitely achieved the SB chevy look Dalen. Love the paint. The C10 is gonna be a sweet looking ride whether pulling the C4 or not.
 
AlbertaZ06, I just found the thread. Kudos to a very ambitious and unique retro mod project. I love the "old" small block look you are creating with the modern tech. I love seeing ambitious people like you. Looking forward to seeing this one in person. Keep up the great work! šŸ‘šŸ‘
