    Hm, it looks to be the CVPI frame could work. I hope you got some sleep to freshen up your judgment. LOL!

    Found a CVPI at the junkyard, looked like it was still in good condition too. Was pressed for time so didn't get to look very well or take measurements either. But a frame off a sierra (or any other truck on the same frame platform) would be as good as a CVPI frame, plus already setup for 4wd lol. I know Im taking a long time figuring out the frame, but just want it to be right the first time so it looks good. But after I get a few more measurements ill make my final decision. Really thinking about a Sierra frame and just shorting it to fit, and leaving ruffly about 4 inches of tire sticking out to help with balance so its not too top heavy. And if it will fit im gonna stuff a souped-up police interceptor engine under the hood, and straight pipe the ****er lmao... can't really do much with the project right now because it keeps raining and when its not raining im busy :/

    Well, a Sierra frame sounds even better! Take as much time as you need. Hope the rain lets up!

    And why not just turbocharge an L67? Make extra WEEEEEEEE!!! Haha!

    Seriously, do what you want though, I'm eager yet patient to see how this pans out! How much power can one get from one of those CVPI engines, by the by?

    Not really sure what ya can get out of them, I think they make bout 300hp stock. And thanks for being patient. Im in between jobs right now, and got a little one to keep diapers on, so the most I can do is make sure it lines up good. But the rain did stop though, so can measure some more at least
