wow, its been a while since i updated, like a week or so.
really had nothing else to do to the truck and was waiting for the motor. well it finally got here yesterday, so today i tore it down enough to where i can mock it into the truck and went ahead and degreased some of the major grime. i ordered the por-15 engine enamel kit along with some chassis paint so we shall see how that turns out. for now i am just getting ready to dip the motor / trans into the truck to weld in the mounts.
things should pick up the pace now.

pics of it now waiting to be fitted into the truck:
the m/t valve covers will be replaced with nicer once and there will not be a/c or ps, only the alt will remain and a 3 carb set-up is already ordered (it has a 30 day wait time).
thanks,
Yaril
