    Updated photos. The pictures of the engine bay above were taken right after I got the engine dropped in. Snapped a few pics today. It's been cleaned up and a few thing have changed since then. The small cable running forward from the throttle lever is a TPS for the data logger. I also have...

    Other things hidden under the truck. I originally wanted to go for the LA small block look, but the snout on the water pump was to long to fit. Had to settle for the magnum timing cover and water pump. Then obviously electric fuel pump Engine only pulls 7" of vacuum at idle and made brakes...

    Coolant system. I originally had a remote oil cooler in hopes to assist in over all engine cooling. I did not get the results I was looking for, so I flushed out the cooler and now run engine coolant through it. It tees out from the lower radiator hose to a Bosch water pump, then to a Derale 40...

    Thank you, I wish there was a bit more room between the frame rail, but it fits. The real pain is the rear steer idler arm and steering box location.

    It feels I have bought more parts that haven't worked than have fit, so if I can help and save someone a few bucks and some time I'm happy to do it. I obtained a 84 Mitsubishi badged version of this truck to use for parts, but when I picked it up I learned it was garage kept with 29,000...
