A few weeks ago I picked up a motor for Nacho.  It is a 5.3 liter Vortec LM7 out of a 99 Chevy Silverado.  I snagged it for $300 bucks.  Going to have to freshen it up.  Need to find a 4l80e trans for it.  So that means that I am going to have to convert the truck to an automatic.  I am doing this because I want to be able to enjoy the truck for years to come and I have had enough medical problems. Just don't want to take the chance.
