Re: 1971 chev tractor puller

got some more stuff done on the truck today. got a different master cylinder bolted up, pulled the calipers off of the front too, pulled the distributor and carb, got the motor mounts unbolted, load lever bolted up, motor is ready to get pulled out next weekend. ran the casting numbers off of the motor and it turns out its a 400 and not a 350 so the plan is to put it on a stand when it comes out and freshen it up. new gaskets, give it a nice go through, check for any cracks or signs of bad things coming. all else fails, i have a good 350 that can go into it. heres a pic
