Re: 77 longbed "overbudget" build
went out and started getting the motor ready to be pulled today. Got all the accessories off the front and dropped the headerse and all that getting prepped so now im in the proccess of pulling the old trans out just got the bell housing bolts left now. Picking up my engine stand this week then finding a place to rent a cherry picker so hopefully by this weekend it out and on the stand then its swapping cam and lifters, clean and repaint motor and trans. Also ditching the fuel hardline that runs from the pump to the carb and going with hose and maybe braided sleeve. New u-joints in DL and swap the rear end for the GM 4 i found at the pick and pull. I looked up the specs and says GM 4 has 3.64 gears not quite 373 but ill be happy.
