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: crew cab short bed build " clifford"

Man that is sweet!

Are you going to stick with the 77 only gold paint on the trim?

Well that's a good question. I was going to paint the trim the gold two tone color but after going through my trim and seeing that i don't have all of it and some of it is in bad shape, i think i will buy all new trim and stay with black. I think black will be a good contrast between the two colors?

Agreed. Black would be nice contrast to the 2 main colors & would look better vs. the Sandstone or 77-Gold option. The assembled bed looks awesome! You're really banging this out.

I could only wish my stuff went so fast....
