Heres what i did today
So, I started removal of the 327 from the truck yesterday, and got as far as pulling off all the stuff like alternator, power steering pump, carb, etc. Today I decided to yank the engine the rest of the way and get ready for a rebuild.
Heres where I started:  And heres how i finished today:  Im going to rip it apart at school and do a few 'modifications' to get this baby purring agian. matt

Just wait, you keep this up you'll get to the point you can get a motor out and another back in all in one day. My brother and I did it in a 16 hour day. Man were we beat. But nothing like hearing the thing purr afterwords.

 The box behind the battery is actually a wooden platform that a P.A. speaker once mounted to. matt
