Thanks! I'm on the final push before winter hits. Hopefully this winter I'll be able to stick the engine and transmission in the shop and go through them, like I planned on last winter lol.

Are you rebuilding the eng/trans?

Engine will likely get overhauled. At a minimum it's going to need 6 cylinder kits, bearings and several oil leaks fixed. I'm expecting it to need a reman head but I have no qualms with re-using the old one if its not cracked. Transmission is more than likely ok. For sure it needs a new tower and isolator and it won't go into deep reduction. I mainly just want to open it up and see if there is anything inside to be concerned about.

Got these drilled and installed. Still need to drill holes for the air drier and tanks once I start to piece it back together.

Keep it up! This thread almost inspires me to bring a 90s truck back to life, but then put it to work. Maybe one day.

Ultimately I want to drive it to my 10 year highschool reunion. So about 2.5 years to finish it.
