The truck is fixed now - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Well, I bought a motor from one of the board members, and did the swap ove the weekend. Put an extra $2000 in dressup accessories and other items i.e. clutch, water pump, motor mounts and others. It's sitting at the exhaust shop right now having a new set of Flowmaster orignal 40's installed with turndowns. I'll post more pics after I wash it up tomorrow.

p.s. Thanks Jose, the motor has worked great so far.

Does that mean you don't have to sell it now that it's fixed?

Yes, I'm not selling it now. I have entirely too much money tied up in it.

Yes I bought it from Jose in Salem. Runs pretty good so far. I'm getting new tires on it tomorrow after I get it from the exhaust shop.

Ended up having some problems once I left the exhaust shop yesterday. The front seal on the oil pan popped out and started pouring everywhere. I got tired of working on it and just took it to the dealer. They got it fixed for me yesterday and now it runs like a champ. I'm at work all day today, but I'm going to get it cleaned up and get some pictures tomorrow.
