finally figured out pictures.
Been here for a little while but finally (Took the time) figured out pictures. I probobly would have never done the big block thing if I had read about Yukon Jack's problems. (And the fact that I got a great deal on it.) But did it before I new about this wonderful board. You can find anything you would ever want right here. Thanks for all your help in the past and in the future.
Everone seems to want valve cover clearance picture so I included a few. Plan is to slowly (Time/money) fix up. Have new leafs (2.5" lift) in garage and a real clean bed. Has to warm up for paint first. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

That truck will look great with a splash of new paint. I really like that shade of orange..are you planning to repaint it that shade?

Looks like it's coming together for ya! Is that stock height in the pics? Why did you have to dimple the firewall? Did you use smallblock mounts or is it because it's a 4 X 4?

Yes that is stock height with worn out leafs and a Big block. I had to dimple the fire wall to get a big block in a 4x4 and yes they are small block mounts. I used the end of a 2x4 and hammer.
