It lives--- sort of

After months of things going wrong with this truck, finally finished my engine swap. Drove it around the block a couple of times and find out it probably needs to come back out. I bought the engine used (yea, I know) big cam (sounds great) but sucks with the stock converter. Also has a lot of blow by. It came with a 3500 stall converter that I didnt use but with the cam, looks like I need to swap converters now. Guess I should have saved enough for a complete rebuild instead of buying a used engine, But at least it moves under its own power again. Sorry just venting ,it was hot out, why did I do this in July ?
