I was hopin to have a pic on here by now of the engine in the truck, but here I sit, still waiting. Ran into a problem and waiting for a part to come in from Texas...lame. If things keep going this way,I'll completely miss out on this season!!
Ya know, I just noticed you don't have a vacuum pump or breather tubes in the valve covers. Is that going to change? might be worth just going a simple header tube evac setup to the front of the valve covers to help with ring seal and venting the gasses out. Plus, as I've learned the hard way, having no hole to put oil in the motor means pulling a valve cover every time you change oil. Not a bad thing, becasue you can check lash, just a pain sometimes when you are in a hurry.
That is sweet man! The truck is going to look mean with that hat sticking out of the hood. You will have to create a new class-wheel standing 101 lol". Don't forget to add some wheelie bars.
I'm hoping it'll fit under the hood lol, maybe not, if it don't, I got a sawzal that'll fix that in a hurry. As for wheel stands, I have my doubts, would be fun but I think it's too heavy to lift the front.
