Here’s some pics of the truck at the world of wheels in 2023 and I won outstanding engine award and 2nd place in my class which was 4x4 pre 1988 but one of the guys putting on the show said it was too rough but who cares I had a big crowd around the truck all weekend
Here’s when I got the engine put in the truck and I had pulled the old blown up 350 out months before and painted the frame and everything but I got the tci converter in the 700r4 . Before I put the engine on the engine hoist I went ahead and put on the @milodon_inc reverse rotation water pump and then got the engine on the engine hoist and in the truck. Everything went smooth except had to cut out part of the brake booster bracket and grind the bottom of the @flowtechexhaust header flange as they hit the top of the @arpbolts head bolts but to get than that it went smooth and fired right up. I’ll post some of the videos I have of when I first fired it up and took it for a test drive
