Finally In The Engine Bay!!!!!
After almost 4 months of nail bitting, nervous wait me and the boy got the motor in and running, that new cam is great!, I never expected her to have so much more gittyup, but she does and it was worth the money and wait, I just got the cameras developed and here is the progress step by step, ( don't have any pictures of the engine in the bay I coulden't get that film developed there was still 16 more pictures left, which can be very useful!....
Step one getting motor back from rebuilder (I know the first step is taking the motor out but I did not take any pictures of that part)  Step two paint motor  Step three admire beautiful paint job!  Step four take picture of motor complete (I know there is no A/C, I would have had it on there but the paint was still drying)  Step five have someone take a picture of you next to the motor  Step six take picture of truck  Sorry this thread is so long but it takes a lot of steps to make vehicle happiness!!!!, and I'm still not done I have to put these caps I think will make the wheels look better on the middle part of the wheels

You know what now that I have this good and reliable motor in her I think that I can go try and chase some storms and possible some twisters with her, what do you think??

I'd say that's one damn fine looking engine, as for chasing tornados with her....Naw, use the wifes minivan. Why not try skydiving without the chute or some other high adrenaline sport.
