    man if I were you i would do an sr swap or a ls1 swap. I am personally looking forward to doing a ls1 on my 85. I just dont have time, money, or reason to right now. when i move away from here and have my "real" job i will tear it all down and rebuild.

    good luck with it man, yotas are great trucks.
