Finally got Bessy cleaned up and felt like taking some pics of the ol' girl, she's a little rough around the edges but not bad for 170K miles (some hard ones in there, believe me) I think. I'm thinking of some appearance mods, any suggestions? She's going in for touch up on the paint and body before too long so may get some things done at that time if it's things I can't do myself.
Added a link for a youtube video of start up, rev and walk around.
Enjoy!

Plus all the extras that go along, high output oil pump, new timing chain, gaskets for everything, ARP head bolts, 1.75 roller rockers, LS7 lifters, and partridge in a pear tree.
I am in no hurry to get it done. The truck runs great like it is and I enjoy it, but this is the next step, for me, in upgrades so I've just been slowly accumulating the parts. There's a few more odds and ends things I want to add (bigger tranny cooler, Lengenfelter timing controller, new nitrous noids) but can pick those up as soon as I get serious about putting everything in.
Yeah, I have a friend who has an '02. I just buy him a six pack and he let's me borrow his stocks for a couple of days. Not a perfect fit, but passes.
