  3. You put it more eloquently than I did Mark…oh well. I’ll pull the pan off and see if it hurt the crank.

    57 Fargo, I feel that pain. Ouch.
    Quite honestly, I’ve bought more gaskets and pulled the pan to check rods, mains, oil pump bolts, because I couldn’t remember for sure if I torqued everything.
     
  15. I’ll pull the pan, maybe I can throw one rod in it. Maybe tighten it this time.

    Today’s victory. I really felt that all of the latch hardware on the rear doors on my Morris woody should be chrome. So I pulled it apart, ground the heads off the rivets and had it done. I thought I took plenty of before pictures. It took me a while to figure it out and get it back together but I did it. I’m very pleased with it (I refuse to think about the cost - ugh)

    Holy Crap! Sorry to hear this!
    I can sympathise. I just fired up a fresh rebuilt sbc the other day. Was pretty nervous about some catastrophic failure but so far so good. Im hoping better times ahead for you, after hearing about your deer trouble earlier

    Hell man in our little world you're the equivalent of an "influencer". You could probably sell autographs. Wish I could get there, maybe next year, looking forward to living vicariously though.

    Or... now hear me out on this.... pull the engine out of the wrecked truck and slip it in the Barracuda :D:cool:
     
  27. This is a consideration actually, I’m thinking I may blow the truck apart and fix a few other things I’m not super happy with anyways. I could build another motor for the truck.

    probably shouldn't post this yet as it's still just a work in progress but that was the question: "what are you working on", not what are you done working on, right?

  29. Way to go Paul! There was a chap looking for those mounts in the wanted adds a couple weeks back.
