Went out yesterday and fought the new shocks on now the rear suspension is solid as a rock and won't budge unless it's got 400+ pounds of weight jumping on it

It has a 351. I'll know if I'm getting it by the end of the month hopefully. If I get it I'll take a pictures and do daily updates like you did on this build.

I'm liking the progress on your truck. It's looking real good as your putting it back together!

Thanks I got some bugs to fix I hope this truck surprises me. I got an exhaust leak and my motor is chugging like I have a huge cam and I know I don't so i will probably end up replacing the cap and rotor
