Why wouldn't it be?

I don't recall right off. Think it was around $6500

I've since swapped it with a Quadrajet.

All the credit has to go to Rob @ shbox.com and Brendan at LT1swap.com, but here is the page I used to get the engine running, turning the factory harness to a stand alone unit. ( lt1swap.com/93lt1a4.htm ) scroll about halfway down the page. He has the minimum required wire list. Its like 8 total to make it run. All the pin out diagrams, and pictures to aid in identifying what's what. Hope that helps. It certainly did for me

Unfortunately, I don't have the truck anymore, I traded it for the 68 Camaro. The air ride was working in the truck when I let it go though. I can try to answer any questions. It might take me a few minutes to dig it out of the way back of the noggin.

@@silvervette732 I appreciate the reply, because the vacuum pump is needed for the brakes, what did you do about the brakes? An external vacuum pump? An entirely different system?

@bildough I did install an electric vacuum pump from a powerstroke inside the cowl, but it only operated the HVAC, for the brakes I used a hydroboost master cylinder from a 97 and ran a LUK hydraulic powersteering pump from the bus, that was already attached to the air compressor, i just had to make a line with an adaptor to the top of the hydroboost, and mount a remote reservoir for the pump, that i got from an international 4700

@@silvervette732 that’s sweet, I really appreciate all this info, did you end up figuring out the air ride cab? And how did the air ride work?

@bildough i had the rear bags mounted, a ride height controller installed, and added a cab support bracket for the shock and track bar. Never did get the frame cross member in to tie it all together tho. I didn't drive the truck too much. But i did take it out local a few times. It seemed to work. But hard to say how much of a difference it made having the full air ride suspension. That made a world of difference by itself.

Reused the stock springs... i wasn't too concerned on this 318, as i have a 440 to put in it if this thing ever dies

@silvervette732 good to hear I have a 1967 plymouth fury 3 and I wanna hop up the 318 in it. If it ever dies I plan on getting a 383 for it?

Over 2 years and its still running good!

@@silvervette732 wow hell yeah

They're purchased for permanent installation.

Stock LT1 setup with the Doorman AC pulley delete bracket.

It depends on whatcha wanna do with it. If its been sitting for years, I'd reccomend pulling the plugs and squirt some lube in it, and turn the engine over by hand before starting it.

@@silvervette732 just want a loud weekend cruiser, should I replace all gaskets? Also the accessory drive serpentine setup looks rough should I replace that aswell?

@@TehKneegrowplease The squarebody im workin on now has a 454, been sitting for 10 years. After i got it runnin i decided it would be best the tear it down, and re-seal the whole motor. Anything that had a seal or gasket was replaced. Minus the heads because i knew it ran well, had great compresson, and had very low miles on a factory reman . But it still gave me a chance to look it over completely, and go on from there, me personally that's what I would do. Then you can do the top end work, provided you know the history of the bottom end and that it runs well. As for the accessory drive, if you got the money to spend and shiny new pullys, go for it. I usually just run factory stuff. Sand blast them and powder coat or just rattle can them. If they're flakey obviously replace them. But a Set of headers and a nice exhaust... looks don't always matter, if it sounds good, people are still gonna look. And if it runs good that's even better.

@@silvervette732 ok thanks for all the info! 👍🏽

Yeah, unfortunately it was starting to nickel and dime me to death... movin on to other projects.

Hell yeah, glad to hear!

Did you see the video and get the idea, or were you already planning and it just validated your project?

I had the idea to do it but then did a search on RUclips thinking someone had to done this before and I was right and I had something to show my wife to say see this is what I was talking about 🤣 thanks again

@@raytobin3309 That's awesome. Glad I could help.

@@raytobin3309 What size shop did you lift your roof on? Did you do that with a 10k lift or more!!!?????

Split the roof in two sections. Could work.

F8000* , and it needs some love.

Agree completely , easy smooth power everywhere without having to rev its nuts off

Lol. Hopin soon the truck will have the 440 rumble.

Stock push rods and springs, only did the cam and lifters, probably should have done springs, but i haven't had any issues with valve float. Wasn't looking for performance, just a nice exhaust sound for when im cruisin

Yeah same here she’s bone stock but I want it to sound better thanks bro appreciate it sounds great

@@cbobmonster not a problem, thank you, and good luck!
