Making progress! :-X22

Gonna get some high temp cremaic coating and paint manifolds and turbo I got the rear main in and the input shaft seal in the trans and filter in to

Well I won't be able to work on it again till Wednesday but I plan on getting the other cab removed and rust treating the bottom of it and painting it

And I had to get more bell housing bolts it only had one in it and it wasn't even right

Well I have a question for u guys the truck is a 96 but the engine is a 96 out of a buss and when who ever did the swap they put the 95 cover on the motor but put the 96 hpop and had to do a lot of cranking to get it started due to what I believe was bleed down so I reinstalled 95 hpop should that fix the problem and do u guys know if a 96 7.3 bus motor has a smaller exhaust housing due to the fact it has a intercooler because the exhaust hosing looks smaller to me than my current dd

Sand thought I'd let u guys know that seen this happen on to diffrent rigs but don't buy orileys brand oil filters the seal fails and leeks oil bad Two diffrent vehicles this truck and a dodge 318

Well I plan on getting the old new cab off Thursday morning and in the paint room gonna wire brush and rust primer and paint the bottom of the cab and do the core support I also am going to build a down pipe for it with the first section being 3 in and second being 4 in I got a buddy who gonna get me some 4in exhaust off a school bus for free then I'm gonna do some sound proofing and insolation and switch the interior to gray with a touch of camouflage in it

I have a question for u guys has anyone converted to power windows and locks because the other cab I have is xlt but it's for 460 gonna see if any of u guys had completed the swap without getting a psd interior harness

Progress looks good. I think I would have to keep it though after all that work. This should help with converting to xlt.
