Nice progress! hope you don't end up in paint prison. Stay after them.

LandonL · 07-28-2010, 01:36 AM

The owners a friend, everytime we've been over (random visits) they've always had someone working on it.

LandonL · 07-28-2010, 01:56 AM

We took the truck to him July 14, so all progress seen has been since then.

qu1cks1lver56 · 07-28-2010, 03:54 AM

When I saw the footprint gas pedal I literally went "YES!"

Everythings clean but the oil pan lol

LandonL · 08-09-2010, 11:04 PM

Got the piston ring end gap checked for all pistons tonight, everything checked out and the rings are ready to be installed on the pistons. Also ordered all the bearings tonight, so assembly should start soon!

67chevy1series · 08-10-2010, 12:49 PM

sweet keep up the good work

LandonL · 08-23-2010, 09:47 PM

Should have the engine done by this saturday. *Knocks on wood*

Sonicman · 08-31-2010, 11:48 PM

I love it bud!!!! I just finished rebuilding my 250 L6. But I did it with the engine still in the truck. So I havn't painted it yet. What did you have done to the head? I need to get mine cleaned up. Are you leaving it bone stock ..... adding power steering or power brakes?

LandonL · 09-01-2010, 04:21 PM

Bone stock. The machinist did a whole work up on the head, new valves and reconditioned all the old parts.

Sonicman · 09-01-2010, 06:53 PM

If you don't mind me asking, what did it cost to have the head worked on? Parts and everything. Just need to know about what to expect. I know every shop will be different.
