New cab support, trimmed to fit and welded in. Considering what I paid for this truck, I think I got really lucky with this cab!

My engine showed up at a local shipping depot, and a friend of mine helped me get it home. ::puts on flame suit:: This is a 2JZ-GE out of a 1997 Lexus SC300. The odometer read 97,xxx miles when the motor was pulled, and you could still see crosshatching in the cylinder bores when I tore it down for a quick inspection. All of these motors came with a forged crank and the blocks are damn near bullet proof, but this being a non-turbo motor, the pistons and rods are nothing special. That's going to change!
