Its Alive!! Its Alive!!
Well after several of months of rebuild time. I finally got the old blue truck back on the road today. It runs good, no smoking, knocking, or leaks but I do need a new alternator. I will try and get some pics of the engine and post them in the next couple of days.

Re: Its Alive!! Its Alive!!
Thanks yall, I wasnt able to get the pics yesterday, had way to much going on. It does feel good to drive it again and the torque is pretty good as well. It sure pulls hard and runs up the rpms pretty quick also. I LIKE IT.
