Well, it IS a Ford 400 so it still is, and always will be a steaming pile.

The happy news is that I wss able to get the old engine in the truck to spin 360 degrees so I don't have to pull the torque converter out with the engine. It's been sitting without a driver's side cylinder head for many years and of course the rear cylinder sat with water in it.

Looks like another good rebuildable 400.
