    My daily is a 1983 Burb K20 with the Detroit 6.2. It’s a blast and I’m in the process of turbocharging it with the components from a 6.5. It’s not a monster, but it is mine! This build though is the dream for me. Looking forward to seeing it go to someone!… I wouldn’t mind taking it home either!

It's a California truck that had a couple small rust throughs but the rest is solid with some patina. I live on my SSI so I can't afford to restore it completely like I would like but I do love driving it to my DR. appts.I get a lot of thumbs up and nice truck comments.

    As long as the truck was equipped as a 3/4 or 1 ton and/or came with a diesel engine from factory, swaps are legal as long as the engine is newer than the vehicle year it is going into. Since the 6.2 was a factory option, any 12v swap newer than the vehicle year would be legal. And no emissions testing is a huge bonus being pre-98👍
