If you aren't going to use the bag, put it up on your garage wall as a decoration

they will come. I ordered all bushings for the front, shocks, and king pins. Going to salvage the brakes for the time being. Should be able to start the ole 240 this week and make sure it works before yanking it out. The C4 will be taken out too, and placed on the 351 to check the compression. Then the drive line will be rebuilt to handle the new power.

I sustained another burn to my left hand, second degree, on the palm. Progress has not been up yet. Rebuilding the front suspension and pulling the C4 out of the truck tomorrow.
