 Well basiclly I removed the old front cover and gear housing and installed one for the 94-98 12v engine. To do this you have to remove the camshaft and all the valve train. I also installed a new head gasket while I was that far in to it. I also removed the oil pan and installed a new pan gasket and cleaned it all up in there. It didn't look too bad at all. I cleaned all the valve train components up and checked the rockers for wear. The 24v rockers are known for galling the lower portion of the rocker arms and the rocker pins. I don't have any pics of the engine tear down. Sorry, I'll get some of the engine later.

Supposedly the body work and priming has been done for over a month. He just keeps putting it off. So he must not want paid real badly.

Man o' man, I've been busy I tell ya.  We've been pretty swamped with customer trucks and our little bro's F-350. Still have a couple of project trucks that aren't ours to get to as well. There's just not enough time. Hopefully some time soon I can get some thing done worth taking pics of. Throwing more parts in the bed doesn't count. Does it?
