    Yeah, going from a small block gasser to a Diesel is so dramatic of a jump in performance I can still hardly believe what I was missing.

    Here are a couple towing pics that I have. Here is my 69 when I went and borrowed a buddy's tractor to grade my road. The 454 I put in there pulls the trailer very nicely, I might add.

    [​IMG]

    Here is when my buddy with his 1 ton converted to 4wd helped me bring my K20 home from the body shop

    [​IMG]

    Here is the 69 a few years ago after I got the flatbed installed.

    [​IMG]

    Lastly, here is my whimpy Yukon bringing home a Blazer from Dallas. Maybe a little overload on those 1/2 ton springs.

    Yep, the engine is running real well. It will pull a healthy third gear scratch with the Detroit hooking up both tires. Great recipe for breaking something :doah:

    Pretty cool, huh? I got a smokin deal on it. That 32' 5th wheel was cheaper than a 26' bumper pull. And it has a slide!
