His van has been gone lately , but I will have pic's tonight. I should put a timing chain in but I think I am gonna pass. I have been looking into stroker motor's and really just want to waste some time with this cheepy . But I have some thing's to come first before another motor.

 

[muddermilitia]

just buy mine, ya know you want to

 

[Big91RustyBucket]

This is what I was looking into .
But there are some thing's I would want differently like roller rocker's etc.

However I dont think the Welded 7.5" Would like that yet.....

 

[Big91RustyBucket]

So what is with the electric water pump?

 

[muddermilitia]

mechanicals rob hp

 

[Big91RustyBucket]

I think it would just complicate thing's to have an elec waterpump . Who need's more stuff to go wrong than there already is?

 

[muddermilitia]

meh, remember I built this for my street rod 2wd k-5. If I originally built it for my trail rig I probably would've kept the mechanical pump, and ran a TBI intake

 

[Big91RustyBucket]

Yeah I want to get stuff to tune Tbi but it just seem's som complicated. I guess I need to keep reading. 400+ hp will need some work I assume.

 

[Big91RustyBucket]

Some Pic's . Was gonna do the top end last night but need to get a bolt out that fell into an oil valley.

Also Stall can't find my ****in key's.

 

[desertrat67]

why didn't you put it all together outside the truck then install?

 

[Big91RustyBucket]

It was extremely Tight. Since it is a 5.7L. I might yank it tonight and put the head's on tho. With it pretty bare it was real easy to get in . It might have also been bc I wanted it in the truck . lol .

 

[desertrat67]

I understand wanting to just put things together. Sometimes you just want it together just to see it together.
