Well I did not get the engine painted today but I did get it ready to take to the car wash and blast the years of gunk off of it so maybe tomorrow if I get up early I can take it in and wash it.
I notice a couple of more problems with the truck today though I found out that all of my springs on my passenger side rear are cracked and need to be replace and I broke off an exhaust stud on the manifold.
About the springs does anybody know of any newer trucks or cars that you can get them out of or do you know of where I can get some for cheap. Please let me know.

Good luck with the build, looke better than my starting point!
I have a good pair of stock 10 leaf rear springs from my 51 you can have for the cost of shipping, but they are some heavy suckers so may not be cheap from NY. If you cant find anything local PM me a full address and I can get a fedex quote. They will need new bushings and probably new clamp bolts, cant remember off the top of my head.
