Engine was supposedly rebuilt at 250k. It has 285k on it now. Not sure if it's true or not. But engine has been out of the truck at some point. Block was painted blue. Somebody put it together without the block plate between trans and block. Doh. Had long tube headers as well. Air system deleted.

The balancer has a slight wobble to it so I'm assuming it has slipped. I need to replace it
