Yea bubba thanks!!!!!!
I finially got everything to put the beast back together.
Block bored .20 over
crank and rods cut .10/.10
Rods bushed for .912 pin
Special order probe pistons with 13cc dish and pin height corrected to give me .007 below deck. This should keep the quench distance right. I have aussie heads but they would be to much compression so I am using my 78cc heads. I won't get my heads back until tommorrow or friday. Hopefully I wont have to work over the weekend so i can get this back together.
Also I have a high volume oil pump for the 400m and I also have a jack roush 100 psi spring for use in this pump. Do you think that the 100psi would be to much. I know that you can never have enought and usually a high volume puts out 60-80psi depending on you clearences.
This weekend we are going to be a uwaharrie if everything goes right.

I have also started an EFI project for this same truck. Here is what I am doing
price motorsports adapter plates to go from 400M to 351W height
Trick flow R series intake
24 lbs injectors
Accel Gen 7 DFI injection system (had from previouse twin turbo mustang)
All I need to do is make my custom fuel tank that goes under my toolbox and then the surge can and two fuel pumps.
When I am done with this I will need some info about a ZF 5 speed in a 78 F150 4x4
