Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds Part II

That is what I wanted to see. It looks like an nice clean install. I like the hood prop rod too.

What time has it turned at the drag strip?

Great job on the engine swap Alan! I'm really liking the bars tying everything together. Is there maybe a video in the not to distant future of you and Brian lining up for curiosities' sake?

Nice, that's a 24 valve! First time I seen one swapped. Most people just do 12 valvers.... Looks very clean! [/B]

Here is my 80s themed square I'm finishing up. Only thing I'm missing is a double hoop roll bar.

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds Part II

If I didn't have a company truck I would daily it. Haven't drove it enough to get a good check on the fuel mileage, but it should be 20+. The dually got 19 and weighed 7300.
