Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II

Installed new "true-double roller" timing set. Had pix of old set but got a new phone and haven't downloaded them yet. It was bad...almost full inch of chain travel between sprockets! Removed intake because i had the gaskets, and it needed a thorough cleaning.removed thermostat to check condition.Add thermostat and housing to the list of "things that cost money and need to be replaced."water pump is also on that list... Everything is prepped for paint,I.e.:block,oil pan, timing chain cover,balancer,intake. paint tomorrow. Also, new H.E.i. dizzy,Taylor wires, plugs, and one wire alternator came in today! Far more work (money) than I had planned.but glad I did it.
