Yeah, I would miss my big box with tools, fluids etc. Sounds like if you want a V8 drivetrain and tons your gonna be heavy. I could get it under 5000 with not to much trouble. The motor I want would come close by itself.

The stock 5.7 tbi with 155000 miles on it is tired. I definetly need a boost in HP. I found an all aluminum 5.3 take out motor for $1300 on Ebay. It has 325 HP. The 5.7 had 205 HP. This engine has to lighter than my all cast iron turd.
