Removed the passenger side manifold today was definitely much easier than when I did the ones on my 2000 F150

Removed the passenger side valve cover and changed the spark plugs. Was shocked at how clean the head is, painted the cover flat black. **1989 F250 HD Build**-akaaoqb.jpg **1989 F250 HD Build**-ikxh4zo.jpg

Well finally got the truck running again. Replaced the valve cover gaskets, and both exhaust manifolds. Still have to finish a few things up yet

lol all the power to you, it's always worth it to get old trucks back on the road. I myself officially get my restoration project of a couple years back to DD on staurday, rather proud and excited. keep working on her and she'll be a really good looking truck. I do miss your old 10th gen truck though lol

Oh god please don't remind me of my 10th gen you're gonna make me upset! Haha that was my first vehicle and I loved that thing just couldn't handle the gas going back and forth to school. At least with this one it's a toy so that's no longer a problem! Haven't seen your truck around the forums lately definitely post some pics when you get er back on the road
