Glad I am inspiring some one  ;D

I plan to have the truck re-painted this coming spring.  I'll keep all posted on that.

I have a quick question for ya, how did you do the throttle set up? Also, any tips as I am considering this swap (6.0L acutally) in my 83 2wd.

I used a throttle cable from a 90ish cavilear.  I had to cut one of the cable stops off, and from there it was plug and play directly to my gas pedal.

very nice build, I have always loved new school motors in old school trucks....rallies and flat black is a good looking conbination.

What are your color plans?
