It isn't every day you run across a Ford engine in a Chevy. Well, Jody Gunter said otherwise. This 1986 Chevrolet C10 Silverado belonged to Jody's great uncle, and he wanted to keep it on the road somehow, some way. Well, after combing through a myriad of engine swap options, Jody landed on a Godzilla crate engine with a few enthusiast-minded upgrades. Those include a BTR stage 1 camshaft, Ford Performance intake manifold, and a 92mm GT500 throttle body. Most everything else related to the swap is all one-off, since there aren't any available parts to put a Ford Godzilla engine into a C10 Silverado.
