@@chrishansen7004 I came to the same conclusion. I have a spare rebuilt 24 valve and that's always been option #1. But, I'm staying with a SBC. It'll be my 400 block, maybe 406, maybe large stroker, and/or maybe a little boost but definitely staying sbc on that one. My other-other heavy hauler squarebody will be get the 24 valve.

This pickup is damn near perfect in concept & execution!The Chevy truck is the best handling pickup of all brands & it doesn't take much to really dial them in & the newer drivetrain is the prime choice that works! I never get tired of the classic 70's Square Body Chevy trucks, when slammed like this rig! I grew up in Fresno California & it is literally the lowered car & truck mecca of the Central Valley in California!

Years ago I had a little red shortbox that was lowered, handles shaved and a 400hp small block 400. It steered tight and fast with an aftermarket box and 11" red steering wheel to match. It looked fantastic but was an absolutely worthless pos that drug on every gravel road and you couldn't haul or tow anything with it. I kept about three months driving only a bit the first month before finding a sucker to buy it. He pulled the drive train and scrapped the shiny red shell.
