what year is your truck? I bet some of the guys on here wouldnt mind helping you
you have a v6 4.3L in what?
I have a 4.3 in a VAN DOWN BY THE RIVER!!!!!!!!
RPM in oldtown lewisville would do it for ya
Lewisville....slowly I turned.....
You wouldnt happen to be throwing back to the three stooges "Niagra Falls... Slowly I turned inch by inch" would ya nathan? Thats where I went in my head anyway.
And Id see if you couldnt round up some guys to do the swap before sending it to the shop... ALOT of helpful members that know a ton of info are in that area!
Yes I was but didn't think anyone would notice. I lived there for 21 years.
Sounds like one of my conversions. :thumb:
sounds like fun. and a very good idear. I'll be willing to help out. don't know much. but I can work a wrench.
IF it were me I'd buy another truck. But Nelson Performance in San Antonio is the only place I would go straight to without hesitation.
I know where I'd go and his place is very close to me. :laugh:
Not for that job...45 minutes? :spit:
yeah, that shop is just a short walk from my kitchen. Too bad they take so long to do conversions. Ordering parts and waiting for them to come in makes a long waiting time on the conversion. Thankfully Summit started carrying almost everything for the swaps.
give the guys over at Xtreme Horsepower a call they are doing conversions on anything and everything
