Sweet, I finally put a set of those valve covers on the 350 I had in my 71 to cut down on oil leaks. They aren't for everyone but they hold a gasket pretty well.

Beautiful engine, that should move the truck pretty well. I'm impressed with all you have gotten done. I think that distributor will be too close to the firewall if the engine is in the original location. You can either modify the firewall or do like I did and get a small distributor with a remote coil. My truck was a 57 Chevy but think it would be the same with GMC.

Well, originally I was going to go with a LS Engine, but decided it would take way too many modifications and a 350 would suit it better


I think this and a 700R4 would be great
