Did you buy it complete or as a roller?

Roller, with most of its parts in the bed and cab. And some new parts in the box. Big items missing are rods, injectors, turbo, ficm.
But between what I’m selling and repurposing to the Chevelle I really won’t have much in a stock motor and modded trans.

thats not Brian's - Hondariders old truck, thats a different Brian out here in az. @05LLYDMAX and i know that "goldilocks" truck pretty well lol.
Can’t wait to see it come together.
It’s a shame he didn’t put the truck back together.
I actually didn’t realize it was Brian’s old truck. Wow.
Speaking of which what’s he been up to?
Rick, Did you see the Engine Builder Diesel of the week interview from Sick week? Congrats!

LB7 Duramax-Powered 1970 Chevelle - Engine Builder Magazine
There aren’t many diesel-powered vehicles that show up to drag-and-drive events, but when they do, they’re usually awesome! Case in point is Rick Fletes’ Chevelle, which is powered by a custom-built LB7 Duramax engine. We got the details from Rick as he waited in the staging lanes for his first...

I haven’t seen the interview yet, I knew it was coming out eventually but had not seen it.
Super cool, thx!!

Parts are rolling in and short block is almost done. Hoping to wrap it up tomorrow.
This one’s an Lbz block, .020 over Mahle forged pistons. Rods and crank checked out from our last combo so reusing those. And this block has a main girdle with factory mains. Also upped the cam to the SoCal 9100AF.
We’re upping the heads to SoCal stage 2’s and injectors to S&S 300% as well. Still waiting on both of these but should be shipping soon.

Done and done, all parts showed up, everything went together well and already have a handful of Smokey burnouts under her belt. Glad to be back on the road.
