Being a boat mechanic means you don't have a cherry picker around.  It proved to be a pain in the ass using the crane.

Can someone for the love of god start producing valley pan gaskets.

I decided to roll with gator studs, as ARP wasn't available at the time.

The 6.0 Powerstroke is still running but there's a suspected intact valve "stuck". 

the moment i realized there is no turning back and i was committed 

This is the e99 cab n chassis donor frame.

This axle is originally an 01 F550 front axle.  It’s currently under my 2000 F350.  I have a set of 4.10 axles to put under my F350. 4.88 gears are way too low for my mix of mountain and highway driving.  The 4.88 gears I think would be great for a dedicated hauler truck.

This is my 10 speed fummins. It's got axles from 2004 f350 and reverse shackle kit. Built most of the flatbed myself. It's got a 94 Cummins i built from the block up. 130710c Eaton fuller , divorced np205 and interior redone. Not a super show truck, just a cowboy truck that goes to work

Engine set it over spring break freshman year of college.  

All cleaned up and resealed (not rebuilt to this day)

Just arrived three months after purchasing.

Very obvious where it came from. Yes indrove it home from there on trailer wheels. 

shot over the rust and decals to make it more presentable sitting outside.

Parts planning and getting a game plan together

tucked in the shop and ready to dig into it

Front end stripped down made the motor pull very easy

One tired big block. Roughly 380k on the odometer.

Heads have been gone through previously. Some of the guides were replaced.

water pump was on the newer side so just like most of the stuff, it gets cleaned and goes back on.

Im 99% sure this was the original timing chain. Lots of missing material and i could get the chain to skip a tooth by hand before it was removed. No idea how i didnt grenade it when i investigated the burnout situation.

Block was carboned up as expected but really wasn't that bad. Had a few people look at it and check out the decks for "flatness". It was good enough to clean up by hand with a stone.

New Ford Grey engine paint on everything engine. Wanted as original of a look as possible

Pistons were removed, crank was sent out for polishing, block was honed, and all new bearings were installed

all 8 had extensive but even wear on the rod bearings. 3 spun main bearings though.

Some of the new stuff soaking before installation

Finally got my heads back. Decked, new guides, full lap job, and heavier springs to match the cam i selected.

These heads flow like junk, but they came off the truck and they're going back on.

Picked up a 1970 D0VE 4bbl intake originally from a 429. This flows a bit better than the original one and gets rid of a few nuisance ports that i dont need.

All back as a complete unit. Was quite the learning experience and id highly recommended diving in to one of these. It took a while, but it got there.

washed 30+ years of grease and grime off this front clip and this was the result. No major rot anywhere just lots of solid steel and surface rust.

Had some cans if Ford Implement Blue so i used them up on the gear box and bell housing.

Firewall was half sprayed half done by hand. I color matched some Home Hardware rust paint to the color "Light Jade" and slopped paint on the firewall, inside of the fenders, and eventually underside of the hood as well.

Hopefully my 100 dollar marketplace centerforce clutch and refreshed flywheel hold up!!

bellhousing back on with new bearing and reworked clutch fork

I thought for sure I'd be fighting to the bitter end...

dropped in, lined up perfectly and sunk right into the mounts perfectly!

New marketplace find core support went in.

fenders back on temporarily to hold up the core support.

pushed it outside for the first time 9 months later to break the cam in.

These hedders were a NIGHTMARE to get in. Drivers side went easier.

Passenger side required 4 hands, removing the starter just a bit, and jacking the motor up till its crunching into the firewall. We got er in though.
