tjolley, thanks for correcting me on the red rtv on my thread, I have since used GM AC Delco RTV on it and its a much tighter feel on the crank, meaning the red Permatex made the crank too loose. Saved me from not having enough clamping force on the crank. Thanks agian man, and you too mrb or GDS or whatever you are calling yourself these days LOL, jk..

thanks.
I will put the engine in when we get a good weather spell, its shelling ice here in Arkansas. The freezing rain is like falling blades of ice... You get the idea, the weather sucks. But the engine pic you saw was without some of the accessories and the timing needs done. Its just too cold in my garage at the moment. Just doing it in phases since its not my daily driver at the moment.

nice, thats the dream. I am keeping my setup nice but manageable. I am in the military and it costs me thousands to move my stuff every time I permanent change of station. When I retire/get settled and build my dream home in about 6 years I am setting up a 30x40 building, insulated 300 amp service etc etc. I own 7 acres in Texas that I am paying off before I move back there and build. Someday for me. Very nice setup btw.
