Nice rides. Welcome.

Ken - good catch on the flag. Definitely a general lee inspired build. Pet pev of mine on these trucks is not matching the interior to the body color. At least he didn't call it a HighBoy.

I would definitely sand and primer the old one. Gotta be worth something to someone. On mine the cap is ok, just the area around it that needs work.

Sounds like another "I Gotta get away from this 5.4 3v".Payments do suck.

Ended up ordering a crate motor. Should be here tomorrow. Decided against a used or remaned.Starting to take everything apart getting ready to pull the motor. As the oil is draining out I take a look at it a few minutes later and WOW! I scramble to get my other drain pan. The one I'm using...

Pretty sure the casting numbers are on the side of the block above the starter.

Yeah that's still an option. Only thing is that price is creeping up there. And then I'd have a new top end and old bottom. May be better to have a remaned where everything is done and start fresh. Got some research to do. Figure out which direction to go.

Well...This is kinda disappointing. Three of the caps that hold the cam down on right side are cracked in half. The journals on the cam are scored real bad. Out of the 12 lash adjusters only two will move freely.
