Re: The 65 C30 Farm Truck

The wife was out of town so I headed off to work early saturday morning to start the engine swap. Thankfully I work for a great company and we have a big shop so I dont have to try and push the truck in and out of my tiny garage until it runs. The overhead crane is also a lot easier than my cheapo engine hoist. I put new intake and valve cover gaskets on the 350 before I put it in. I wanted to clean it better first but I didnt want to take a chance getting water in the engine and then letting it sit. Once it is up and running I will hose it down with degreaser and try to clean it up a little more. The engine will probably come back out this winter for a good cleaning once I know everything works.

I cant wait until I can roll the windows down and cruise it with the high end stereo cranked up.
