Got the engine buttoned up last night! After a few test drives, no real issues except that the power steering pump picked a great time to die, and I’m still having the weird overcooling issue this truck has always had. But overall, it did great! Much more power and smoother running than its ever been. Rock solid 13.5 psi fuel pressure. Deleted the drop down filter adapter and installed the standard SBC bypass, and changed the oil, along with a new fuel filter and air filter.
Next up, tomorrow‘s project! “Stole“ the core support from the parts truck. The one on this truck currently is badly damaged, even though it doesn’t look bad in the pictures. And yes, we still have a shitload of snow.
Since I already know the frame mounts for the core support are bent too, I ordered a new pair, as well as the rubber mounts themselves.
