I'm with Skelly......what's your dad's problem?!?!?......you could be out doing a lot worse things than wrenching on an old Chevy!

My body shop is going to paint my motor to match my exterior paint. All I currently have to post up pics of is a ton of new parts.... The 496 going into my swb is down at my dads shop awaiting a tear down and inspection. The new 496 I'm starting on is still in boxes from summit. Your truck looks good bud! I'm planning on some sort of silver metallic for my paint. Just throwing out the idea of painting your block to match your exterior! Keep us updated on the progress!

BB backed up with a TH400 in my K20. Mostly just bragging rights like most of the guys on here say but its had some internal work done. Its been in the truck since the mid 80's and runs like a scalded eagle. Still gotta figure what all has been done internally at some point. I do know its got one hell of a cam in it. Don't mind how ugly the thing is, its a work truck and I haven't gotten to the clean-up phase of ownership yet.

I bought the breather from a board member here on the parts board, from a 70's vette I think and Year One has the decals.
Your truck is looking good BTW

It does make noise. Here is a video: http://s851.photobucket.com/user/BWF...out-1.mp4.html There are a couple of really nice engines here that should keep up with it. I don't think I want to run that 496! As for yours, that little 355 should run just fine. Very nicely done!
