Yeah...................I've accomplished this in a suprisingly short period of time. I installed a new 117CI S&S engine in the bed of the truck by merely folding down the tailgate.

Performance was about the same but the bed looked much better!

been thinking of doing my 84 stepside in a biker theme, turn signals, license light, mirrors, engine under the hood, . there must be one somewhere with this theme, although i have missed it in my sheltered short life.

LOL!

TSNAP, a bike tranny won't handle it. You'll need to rig some sort of Frankensteinian setup that will probably be far more trouble than it's worth.

Just think of all the chain guards you will need to
weld togeather to keep your jeans from getting caught.
Be sure to take a ball bat to all the windows for full effect of riding.
