Re: What did you get done?

So many things to do, so little time...I have been searching nonstop for a 73-87 shortwheelbase frame and fleetside bed in decent condition and have yet to find anything for any resonable price...I did how ever try to install my new valve covers this weekend, but the driver side hits the firewall at the brace for the brake booster...oh well, atleast now I know were to cut on the 74.

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.

7T7 that's a sweet setup. I bet you can sell those for a nice profit to some of the guys on here.

I worked like usual and got more parts in for my secret upcoming project Once I get everything in I'll post pics.
