That's the idea - to have it purr and run it for a long time. It's going in my '66 C10 with a Richmond 5-speed and 3.07 rear. Lots of cruising.

They also cut the all the sealing surfaces between the head and the manifolds.
I just started putting the manifolds on, the fuel pump, water pump, etc. this past weekend. I'll get a pic soon, In the meantime, here it is after paint:
