thats alot of engine for a small frame,not?

it should do fine as it's not a high output set-up, stock VE pump engine 140hp 400 tq, the truck had a 6.2L diesel in it from the factory and the previous owner had an ATS turbo kit on it too boot! so i think it will do the job just fine as the 6.2L engines are pretty freakin heavy too!
