Thanks guys for all the compliments. This thing has been a long time in the making. Now that the engine is together, i need to get my a$$ in gear and put my truck back together.
lyrikz, Good eye on the spark plugs! You guys are sharp! Those old plugs have seen a few coats of engine paint thru the years.

I just had to see how the red plug wires looked on an orange engine so i left the old plugs in so i could mock up the wires. I think a set of black wires would look better.
