Re: OMG what did I do...

I got the truck today. Put some gas in it and started it up. It didn't smoke like the guy told me and the starter did work, he said it stopped working. I changed the oil and tried bleeding the brakes but the left rubber line burst on me. Better there then on the road somewhere. I took a few shots of the engine today. I never notice the High Tourqe 283 when I first looked at it.

Re: OMG what did I do...

Neat! I love it.

Probably a good idea to at least replace all the rubber lines; especially considering how little they cost.

I am going to drive it. I plan on doing front disc and a 700r4. I will probably do some body work to it while I drive it. I really want a fresh paint job on it.
We are doing good here. Luca is doing good also. We will have to take a trip down sometime. Or maybe some get together somewhere with some of the members here.
