Congrats Andy that thing looks awesome. I can't wait to hear how it runs!

I will be ordering a converter this week... too bad New England Dragway closes this coming weekend... I wont be able to test everything out until this spring.

 

since im going to take the oil pan off, should I go ahead and replace the oil pan gasket?

 

I've had mine off twice, still stock gasket lol. If it looks good, re-use it. If it looks bad, replace it

 

Ok, sounds good. I'm ready to drive my truck again

 

Me too! Yu should fix it tomorrow! And go out sat night

 

I have a feeling it will be pretty dead saturday night..

 

True, guess we can just party instead.

 

Bring the beer, I'll be building the new engine. lol

 

Some BP into your cylinders!

 

ok, got all the bolts for the oil pan out, now its just hanging by the oil level sensor plug and I cant seem to figure out how to undue it. Anyone know how it comes off?
also since I have the pan off, should I invest in some ARP rod bolts to keep the bottom end together?
