Didja try looking at www.socalcustoms.com? What I found, and it is all I found, is that Bryan Foss did the photography on November 3, 2009. If you go to the website, you can view his pix as they were taken. The two trucks you asked about are on the Nov. 3 prompt, on page 1 of 17 pages of pix taken that day. There is a Ridetech logo at the front of the right front tire. Don't know if that means anything, but you look for all the clues and...

Your truck your choice! Like I said, I prefer STANT brand T-stats. If it spikes, I would not want it. Some thermostats have a notch in the seat or valve, and some have a hole in them, to let the coolant circulate a little bit so the heat is moving by the T-stat so that it opens without a spike, which also helps bleed air out after having the system open. Some people drill a small hole to do the same thing.

It has to have 350 injectors for sure or it will run lean. You also have to use a 350 prom chip

If you take off at a stop light hard you can feel it kick in and its like a small shock load on the gov loc, enough times of this and it comes apart therefore tears up the gear set and bearings if you keep driving.. Thanks.

Have you considered just buying a complete kit for the ride height that you want?
Are the rear springs on top or under your axle?
Bell Tech, for the most part has several levels of drop. The first being a dropped spindle in the front, that is good for 2" of lowering. That can be enhanced with a set of drop springs for more drop.
The rear is different. You either change the ...

Check engine light coming on? I know that the OBDI system is more involved to troubleshoot, but you can get it to display codes by flashing the check light.
Sounds like you've done the normal stuff in trying to resolve your issues. Hopefully, someone with knowledge will offer some of it.

I can't answer anything on the heater blower motor...so keep checking.
My understanding on the engine swap issue is it should be doable. Make sure that whatever the sensors and such are on the old engine are also on the replacement engine. Both vehicles you cite are OBDI-compliant, so you are staying within the "family". Shouldn't be any issues.
However, I have been wrong before and I ...

Wow! That's quite an engine! Is that an air compressor sitting on top of it in the drawing? Sorry don't know anything about them except that the look long. I guess maybe not any longer than a strait six? What did they come in?

That is the correct water pump for your truck. Are they new hoses? New radiator cap? Have all air burped out of the system?

is this the wheel you are talking about?
they are plastic coated alloys. you could try stripping the plastic off and polishiing them, im not sure how its going to turn out though.
i think the metal on the center cap is very thin, it might get distorted if you try to polish that, try a junk yard or check on cl for someone parting out a truck

It could be a cracked flex plate (the part many people refer to as a flywheel). They crack in the area where they bolt to the crankshaft. Sometimes it can be very hard to see the cracks without removing the flex plate.
Does it sound like pinging?
Did you check the EGR operation at all?
Did you check for ECM trouble codes?
Does the check engine light come on while driving?
