Made some engine progress last night
Thanks to you guys that helped me out while I was a bit stumped last night. Well I started with a bare block and ended up getting the entire bottom end together along with the heads, push rods and rocker arms done.Just have to get the intake mounted and put on the rest of the small stuff now. Getting closer to start up
 I'll post some pics early next week of the new engine

I hope to have the engine asembled , have the clutch and tranny bolted back on, and have the engine and tranny back in the truck within 2 weeks. Then it's just the damn body work i gotta finish up
