What direction do you want to go, what will it mostly be used for? 
RIP KYOTA

You can go through life being scared of the possible, or you can have a little fun and tease the inevitable.

Give a man venison, he'll eat for a day. Teach a man to hunt Blacktail, he'll be frustrated for life!

I say leave it bone stock until you are ready. Fix up the motor and get everything cherry first. Then chop and swap.

Sounds good to me, depending on the chevy's you might need some longer shackles on the rear to match the 4" front springs up front
