Sadly I don't have the budget to buy a vortec motor and intake. I need to make the best of what I have.
I'll probably scrounge CL for a running pickup C/K 30 with a bad trans and swap my trans and rear end into it.
I want to keep my DRW, the rest is negotiable :P

A long block (vortec or otherwise) is less than $150 at the junkyard here, are they that much more there?

Actuallyplans are for it to either be a drive on car transport or just a flatbed with a "sleeper" cab.
