Haha what the hell I'd drive to Kansas. I'm in Colorado so it cant imagine it's more than half a days drive. The only problem is that evreyones trucks are in pieces. I've been done for a while, but my truck will be going under the knife again soon when i buy a new built engine.

Haha I went with manley h beams. Eagles were a little too much overkill for me. Manleys are the perfect amount of overkill

Yeah meet n greet would be pointless right now.. id be able to show you a torn apart 4v and a very messy garage.

Front cover gaskets
MMR billet cam spacers
ARP head studs
Timing chain guide
Front crankshaft seal
Exhaust Header gaskets
Valve cover / spark plug gaskets
Water pump nipple
Rear head cooling kit
Block to oil filter gasket

My oil pump just showed up today with new pick up tube.

Heading by the parts store later for a few other things.

Nice. I reccomend Motorcraft VC gskt's and spark plug tube seals. The only ones that seem to last..
