Very nice! Is that the led kit from LMC, also how are you modifying your floor to fit the Allison?

 

[DaPlumber]

Yes, Its the new head lights and LED tail light kit from LMC. I put a 3" body lift with polyurethane bushings. I needed all 3" of it!! LOL

 

[Babaganoosh]

I bet, that Allison is HUGE!!

 

[kgblazerfive]

I have heard thats why they aren't building them new they won't fit.

Does the 8.1 use the same mount style/locations as the older big blocks?

Does the 8.1 use the same mount style/locations as the older big blocks?

I believe so.

 

[DaPlumber]

The only mount that had to be moved and reworked was the trans.

Nice new toy. i just want to follow along with this build as the same could be done on a 4wd chassis mostly the same way.

 

[DaPlumber]

[BulldogK5]

Yeah, I remembered that was yours. That's kinda why I wanted to follow this one. I'll never be able to do it, but I can dream can't I.

Nice engine swap. I am going to be looking to do an engine swap on mine in the next year or so, & i am torn on what to swap in. Damn desiel is $3.50 a gallon. That 8.1 swap looks nice. Only downfall IMO is the body lift.

Does the 8.1 have the same bellhousing pattern as the older blocks?
