People are allowed opinons. I think most people are aware someone likes it or it wouldnt have been done.

Right on. Agreed.

Be a bit complicated I think with all the databus communication going on between engine/tranny and chassis these days...(hopefully with GM having that setup in the denali already the swap should be doable with correct harnesses etc).

I really wish GM would allow such combo's, I mean Ford had thiers, Dodge had theirs, and here we are. The 454SS was good for its day, but wouldnt hold a candle to the last gen lightnings and esp the SRT-10. The 6.2L is IMO the best truck engine GM has had (performance wise) esp coupled with the 6 spd. I am shocked at the power the new Denali trucks have stock, imagine just a few tweaks, let alone some serious mods.

I agree to a certain extent, but just because someone doesnt like a certain style doesnt make them less of an "entusiast"

Do we know what the black truck started as? GMC? Chevy? I am curious as well what the plan is, let us know AndrewGS.
