    That is a beautiful truck, I'd honestly keep it stock if it were mine. Or if I had a crap load of money I'd do a 454 LSX, that's the only way I'd do a swap in a 454SS.

    Appreciate it. I'm about 51% decided on going the LSX route. The stock 454SS engine itself isn't all that special, they came in Suburbans and 2500s during the same years. I'm thinking 6.0 and 6speed would make a fun daily driver, put out decent power and good mpg too. If I pull the trigger I'll start up a build thread. If the LSX 454's were more affordable then I would for sure swap one of those in no question.
