I haven't been able to dig the 351 out of mom's garage yet. The engine was the first thing in that garage about 10 or 11 years ago and now it is filled with stuff including moms corvette and my sisters stuff from her house when she moved to an apartment.
In the meantime I decided to start working on my plow truck because it had the crap kicked out of it last winter. The frame broke behind the spring mount on the driver side and I had no choice but to keep pushing snow. This has twisted and mangled the pass side frame rail beyond repair . I was planning on welding her up but scared if we get snow like last winter it won't make it through the season. She is pretty rusty (rotten). Trans is on its way out also. Only 1st and reverse left and the planatarys for low range are howling pretty bad.
That said the old 302 runs great. It will be quicker to pull the engine out of ol blue and throw it in the super cab. Some pics of disassembly
