Thanks for all the info on that and pictures helped a great deal.

Cool! It will make a cleaner install for you in the long run. I have not had any issues with fuel splashback or anything so far. Keep in mind while mounting it that you may have to drop the tank from under the bed to get at the sending unit one day, it would suck to have to remove the bed to do that.

Got a little done yesterday, headers, waterpump, radiator, manifold, valvecovers, fuel pump, battery cables, power steering pump, and all of the motor mount bolts are now removed. Still have the oil pressure tube and the tranny bolts and that's it, she'll be out tomorrow.

Thought this was kinda cool. I sent some pics to Mar-K and they put my truck on their website and sent me an email saying it would be a Featured Truck soon. It is close to the bottom on the right side.
Check it out here.

Thanks dude! The engine builder told my friend that he had a 327 coming in this week or possibly this weekend for me. He didn't know if the engine was good or not but he is hoping it will be and he will start workin on it for me. Just found out about this an hour ago. Hope it happens.

Talked to the engine builder today and he said go ahead and pull the engine cause he should have my block as soon as tonight. We'll see. I decided to go ahead and get the engine out so I can clean everything up while I am waiting. My oldest brother Mike helped me a little so it made things a little easier.

Hey Slick glad to hear the engine builders still in communication with you least thats a plus and hope soon that block comes around for you. I am sure your anxious to get it all done once again. Hope the best for you on this.

I know, I know. Ronnie doesn't stop sanding his 39 coupe if my truck is uncovered, and he blows the shop out with a backpack blower. I don't think he would do that sh*t if his Cutlass was in there.

Really anxious since I went to the carshow last night. Lot's of our trucks were there. I met a forum member there also, 77chris03 and Brittany. You can see all the trucks at this thread - http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...=395691&page=4

I think I spoke to soon on the engine. He has not contacted me nor has he picked up my engine. Guess it's time to make another trip over there to build the fire back up because nothing is going to happen unless I stay on him about it. :confused:

All the innards that I currently have are going into it, so it will not be getting anymore horses. : ( I think maybe it's time to have him weld it and move on.
