Northwest Members - 69 c10 lq4 swap in SD

hey guys heres a link to my ls swap in my 69 c10. I found out that almost everyone in south dakota is afraid of the new gen III small blocks when i took it to the outkasts car show in mitchell a while back. People looked at the motor and just got a stupid look on there face and asked where the carb and distributor was:confused:
