Finally finished working on other people's junk, and got around to working on mine. Almost ready to drop the engine in the truck. Here are some pictures of my progress. Rebuilt the heads. Put them back on with MLS head gaskets. New Melling oil pump and GM timing chain to spin the LS1 cam. Installed the Comp Cams trunion kit and buttoned the top end back up. Painted and loosely bolted the dirty dingo mounts on to the block. May try to drop it in tomorrow.

Stay tuned. Mike
