Nice looking shop!

 

[webb06]

Thanks it's a family business. Been in business since the 60's and in this shop since '82. I'm pretty blessed to have access to about any tool I need.

Can't see the crack but was leaking in the bottom left corner

Studs threads were completely covered in water




Everything is tore down. Now wait for the new pieces to come in

Replace oil cooler again or leave it? The temps were showing fine when I tore the truck down I don't think the sludge got in to the cooler

The block has arrived. Crank is at the machine shop getting polished, rods are getting reconditioned. Once the pistons and cam make it in it will all get balance then I can start reassembly
