I had a back and forth when I did my frame of the muriatic acid mess. I don't want to speak for skymangs, but I am not sure its an exact science. I used a couple of flap disks and my welds came out great. I tried the muriatic process and it was messy and made no difference to the outcome of the project. I only did one side of the frame before giving up and using a flap disk on the other side of the frame. Just go lightly on it.
Nice score on the engine. Make sure you get everything when you go pick it up. I made the mistake of not verifying my craigslist engine and spent another $2000 to get it to working condition in the truck. Having the matching transmission will help!
