got some more pictures, as soon as they finish downloading I will post them up. Nothing really too exciting.

First round of parts are at the powder coaters
Motor will be dropped in this week.

Decided to remote mount my Oil filter where the Battery used to be. That way it will be easy to get to and when changing won't drip oil on my nice powder coated cross members

That motor is really looking good, Mark!

What lifters did you use?

BTW, what camera do you have? I've never seen close-ups like the rockers and valve springs come out so clear.

Not sure if we are allowed to post links of non Truck related stuff. If not Mods can delete it

Rick, have you used Morel's before? I tried them once on a motor build about 3 years ago and even with the correct preload made the motor sound like a damn sewing machine. Are they better now?

(edit) nevermind... looking at the pics again... those are not the Morel's I tried. The one's I tried did not have the tie bar.

Mark,
Noticed you removed the firewall insulation. Are you going to paint the firewall and leave it exposed or just put new clean insulation in?

Bill
