End of the day, I want to be able to enjoy the truck versus looking at in the driveway. It was my summertime toy when I lived in the midwest.

Steeveedee, no AC on this beast, although been thinking about adding that option at a later date. Thermostat's are cheap, but I do not see that solving the starting issue when warm, although toss in a spacer and see what that gets me. A stroker motor is a 350 block, clearanced for a 400 crank and rotating assembly. Also I have cast 64cc heads. Hate to do a complete top end kit cause at that point I might as well sell out to the LS swap.
I doubt it needs anything done, then, engine-wise.
