Hello from Southern Illinois
« on: March 11, 2016, 07:27:43 pm »
Hello everyone, new to the forum here.  Just picked up a 1986 K10 long bed with a 305.  Looking to put an older style front clip on it from a 73-80 K10 and either a 350 or 6.0 LQ4.  If anyone has tips on the front end swap it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

welcome from maryland. imo from what ive seen its easy to go back from the new style to old since the hinges are on the fenders and dont mess with the cowl
