<hr style="color: rgb(209, 209, 225);" size="1"> <!-- / icon and title --> <!-- message --> Here is a video of my truck today another friend came over to help with the timing. That little bit of smoke you see is where I spilled oil on the exhaust manifolds.

It's a great feeling when they fire up that first time after a bunch of work. Even if it wasn't a major overhaul. Puts a smile on the face. Congrats Cliff.
