I have another engine to reinstall, I am rebuilding this one before installing it.
While it is out I am also going to do some rewiring and paint in the engine bay.
Well that will give us a chance to get a breath of freash air and the smoke to clear out! LOL
I will be at Flatwoods (Holly Gray) all next week if-n any one wants to come out and play!
ahhh man, hate to here that dude, im going to start looking around and buy all the engines i can for your truck. i no you have mastered the install now lol. so we can have a pair and a spare. i'll get some pics of my latest truck in a few days.
Well I am almost disassembled, tomorrow night the oil pan comes off to inspect the bottom end.
I have been tossing the thought of getting another truck around.
Bad thing is there seems to be few trucks around that have what I am looking for.
I am still not sure I want another payment to have make either.
There is a 97 XLT Stroke 350 4x4 dually crew cab 5 speed with only 90,000 on it here that I would buy, but the owner wants to much money for it.
I also found the same truck in a 99 model with 120,000 on it for 1000 dollars more down in Ky.
The 99 model has a lot of goodies on it, and it is a six speed, but it is only an extended cab.
And they would both have a payment book attached to them.
I dropped the 6.9 heads off at the machine shop today.
After I get the report on the condition I will be making a decision on whether or not to do the block and how far I will go.
I can see I have valve guide and stem seal problems in the heads.
I am trying hard to not go the payment route, but I am a little tired of swapping motors and bumming rides.
If I go the payment route I am going to try and keep it low.
I am looking more in the 300 dollar range.
I have no use for a new truck, I am looking 97 or older, although there is a 99 in the classifieds that is tempting.
I am sorta attached to my "True Blue" one. Second one I have had that color. Actually the dang thing looks purple at times. The first one was "Midnight Blue Metallic."
