Chinook RV

Looks mint!

The weight is about 7k I am thinking. It will actually double power and torque with the LS swap and overall reliability. So MPG should be 17 or so. But the 400 with a sniper and a 700r4 does the same however I might have to swap cam and heads. Carbureted it's 240 something HP The LS swap is more or...

Where will the shifters end up?

Looks great so far. Keep it up!

Cheers,
