Hopefully picking up my 2500 at lunch. It's an 03 LQ4 4L80E 4x4 for $2900

I've been thinking of doing something very similar to this for awhile now. I have a MP T76 and log manifold that I never used from an old project.

I'd be lying if I said this build didn't inspire me to expedite the purchase
