Yep, right now it has a different (diesel) engine in it, I have the original V8 5.0 litre but it needs a rebuild first.
Which diesel is it at the moment?
I know Chevy used a couple as standard, the Detroit Diesel V8 and the problem one - the Olds LF9, a comically poor engine that gained a reputation for grenading itself quite spectacularly.
Unless it's an engine that wasn't found in that truck normally I'd expect it to be a DD, as they were (still are in fact) a common swap into GM trucks.

It's got a Nissan 2.8 coupled with a manual gearbox in it right now.
