If your looking for a bolt in 5.0L swap I have a Ultimate Customs kit. One of the last that you will find that they made. Here's the pic of my motor swap using the kit.

gravity5, i have Eric Startzel to mine hes the owner of EMS offroad an offroad shop near me, if your 8.8 if an offset meaning it has one long axle and one shorter axle, you can cut down just the long side and get another short axle like the short side, which will give u almost 3" if i remember right. This is what i did because i wanted a centered rear for my 90 instead of the offset rears like most 8.8's

SierraX he said above he would like to bag it in the future the truck will not be able to lay out without tearing some shit up with the Ultimate Customs kit
