Default Almost back together!

Ok guys I'm about to go from to ..... Tomorrow we are bringing my truck down to the beautiful town of Winder, GA to let Bill and Brad yank the engine out and show it some loving.... It's getting studs,Adrenaline HPOP,dieselsite fuel system, injectors and a gtp38r among other things. This isn't going to be a overnight thing but I know it will be worth the wait, especially since I havnt driven the truck in prob 2 months. I will post some pictures tomorrow of it once we get it loaded on the trailer and behind the Dodge that will be pulling it I know I know but that will hopefully be the only time it is behind it haha anyway just posting my excitement lol hope everyone has a good one!

The valves got pretty ate up to, I had bought 2 other sets of heads so hopefully the machine shop can make something out of all the parts.... I can't say enough to bill and brad and Cody, I'm sure they will be tired of messing with my junk soon lol... At least I know when it's back together it's going to run like it's supposed to!

At least your new engine will have forged rods instead of PMRs.



My big hang-up at the moment revolves around the kind of usage that spare short block you brought in has seen in it's remanufactured life.......

All of the second compression rings were stuck, two of the pistons had broken ring lands, and the cylinder walls were flat WORN OUT.
