Stored Engine Prep to Run
Hi All
Due to some personal and medical issues the engine I completed has been sitting in my garage for a year. now we are ready to get the project going again. I had wrapped the engine in shrink wrap and was wondering if I should pull the heads and pan and check everything out before moving ahead. What are your thoughts? Thanks guys
Oh yeah, my son got married and was given a quad for their wedding present from the inlaws. We are thinking about removing the bed and installing a flat bed. How bout a 400hp flat bed, quad hauler with stack exhausts behind the cab?

I've been thinking about stacks, heard the sound resonates through the cab something terrible. Give it a try and let me know.
BTW, congrats on your son, may they grow old together.
