      @@Steve13211 99 to 06 chevy 1500 Passenger and Driver mount brackets. It's a plate that bolts the motormount and bolts to the frame with 2 long bolts each. I bolted them to the motor mounts and welded the plates to the frame once i had everything lined up added gussets for strength. I would get a turbo 400 trans. Great question and please sub

    Took my Isuzu (4hk1) powertrain out of the truck and put it into my airstream motorhome. Thought about selling the clean California NPR body but may be better to sell it running? Could put the old 454 V8 into the NPR 🤔 Not sure… nice project!!

      @@JUNKYARDGTO way to good to scrap. Rust free CA frame with cab and axles. Here in the northeast someone would love to use that to rebuilt their rusted out npr. It’s a 2005 so just before DEF equipment showed up on those. The frame on the 2005+ models is a little wider, too. The 454 should fit but I’m not sure it’s worth the effort doing the conversion. I just wanted the bulletproof diesel powertrain, harness, and all the relevant pieces for my motorhome. And that’s a major project in itself.

      Plenty of medium (that is NOT a "heavy duty" truck in the trucking world) duty rigs including rollbacks ran gassers that make less power like the C-50 I harvested a 366 from a few years ago. Gearing makes the difference and it was common for GM, Dodge and Ford petrol engines to be used from pickup trucks into their medium duty range before economy (remember when diesel was cheap?) pushed manufacturers to drop them. Plenty of big FE Ford engines were also used in medium duty dump and flatbed trucks.
