    Hey all,

    5.3 aluminum LM4 with TSP stage II truck cam., 4l80e, long tubes into duel 2.5" Bilsteins all around, box lower & adjustable rear arms with Hotchkis swaybar. 4.10 gears.

    Wagon is currently down. I got intimate with a telephone pole last summer. I have a Chevy front clip and upgrading to factory air and nice dash out of a '86 Buick Estate, Getting lots of needed interior bits as well.

    Cheers,
    Ray

    Welcome!

    Very cool!

    Do you have a writeup anywhere of the swap? I'm in the parts collecting phase of doing a similar swap in my Buick Electra and want it to go as smooth as possible.

    A bit late to the :welcomewagon: but :Welcome:aboard. Sorry to hear about the pole, sounds like you haven't given up on the it though. We had one similar when the kids were kids, affectionately known as Eeyore. I could fit a herd in there with the pop up way back seat.

    Enjoy.

    I'm surprised that these folks still think this is a good way to get traffic to their sites.
    Nothing wrong with being a prude. In fact, I think that it's pretty gutsy in this day and age.
