Well great, we're both building engines. I've got a 302 on a stand now. But I ain't cool enough to have a step-side Dent. It'll go in a Jeep. I've built a couple of 400's which is same as your 351M. Plenty of folks here know more than I do, so ask away when you run into a snag.

Hey, I just checked my spare water pump. It's not 1/2" NPT. It's 3/8" NPT. I confirmed it with a 3/8 NPT tap. Sorry for giving the wrong size earlier. I sure hope you haven't already ordered one.
Excellent engine you've got there. You're gonna have a blast building and driving that "cool guy" truck. I'm glad to meet you and glad you're here with us!
