1974 GMC junk. LS swap

[C-450]

Ok not really an LS swap but a 4.8 swapped into a 74 GMC that last year had a turbo 5.3 in until it blew. But this truck right now has a bone stock 4.8, TH400 with stock converter, and 3.73 gears with a welded differential. So we decided to have some fun and while I don't have any pictures of it going together, we do have video and will make another one talking about what was used on the truck.

Thanks guys. Like I said, we'll make another video this week explaining the whole truck, history of the truck, how it went together, and the parts needed to replicate it.

The blown up turbo engine that came out of this truck is now being rebuilt and will be used in whatever car I can find for cheap. It's a pretty rough engine so it'll go nice in a rough car.

Thanks. I've got this engine on a table to start mocking up another turbo setup for the orange truck. We're going to put this thing through hell again.
