Hey guys--

For quite a while I've been getting to do a change in my F-250, from a tired 390 to a built 300. Doing all the research and finding the parts, and trying to cover all the bases for the actual swap before hand has taken quite a while, but it's been fun too.

Here are some pix of the engine before it goes in.

Nice

Did you blast the black powdercoat off the clifford valve cover and have it chromed or does clifford offer it like that? What cam is in it? You work over the ports in the head at all?

Thanks for the pictures! I like the details you've put into making it showy. Good job
