What's up all. Found this site looking for random parts. Figured I sign up and see what's up. I have a 97 1500 that has been awesome. Use it to pull my mustang to the track as much as possible. Has about 215000 on and I'm starting to look into a new motor. Probley something stroked out. Has its minor issues like most. Needs dash replaced. Paint fade. The usual. Hope to get some good info here and meet some cool people.

Anyways.... here's a few pics I have on my phone. Pics... the most important part of the thread. :)

Thinking of going to a 390 useing the stock block. Its just a thought right now.

Thanks the car runs 7s with a best of 7.77 on a 100 wet shot. Its a all stock 180000 mile worn out 5.0 with a stock t5 trans. (5spd) With some suspension mods.
