OrangeJuice Overhaul
Hi everyone,
Just wanted to check-in with everyone about my project truck OrangeJuice. About a month ago I pulled the engine due to the block having a hairline crack in it. Luckily the short block I bought last year was still under warranty and has now been replaced to previous specs - 390 bored .060 over to a 402cid. I'm now in the process of rebuilding it back up to what it was, maybe even a little better. So, I may have some questions as the build-up continues. I will say that I am having fun with this project and surprised as to how fast I can work issues since I've been through this several times now. The engine will look pretty much the same as the photos in my gallery now show. We never give-up the love for our trucks. I will be back on the road shortly.
Thanks
