I know right, I just need a donor with the L94.

But if I found said donor that motor would go into my Colorado

I wish I could "just" put a cammed 6.2 in any vehicle just to take advantage of an intake manifold!

Tru-Cool 40K? I have one on the way. I just saw there is a factory cooler kit (GM Part #19171483) with lines that would work for the Tru-Cool with very little modding. Basically it's just trimming the radiator shroud where the lines would normally run so they can be spread apart to fit the wider cooler.

I just wish I had known about those factory lines before I placed another order. It would've put me over the "free shipping" amount.

are you replacing the whole axle or just the internals

New ring/pinion and locker; plus a complete rebuild (new bearings, races and gaskets)

So same axle housing and axles......but all of the guts are being replaced
