Hang in there bud I'm sure she'll come around. If not I'll pitch in for your first tank.

Yeah I know right ?  Don I received your PM and then lost it due to the wife logging me out... Please POST it here if you feel comfortable with that.... No one has contacted me on logging back in and helping me out... I'm logged into tapatalk but logged out of our chevy forum website. Which is literally my favorite website to go to... Thanks for taking the time to send that long PM .....  If you could copy and paste it here that would be GREAT!

Okay so here are some pictures of the much awaited big block build! Now to just let everyone know.... MOST.... Of the money went to internal parts and machine work out the ying yang.... More pictures to come after the headers are installed, and engine is finalized,,, then installed in the truck.... :-) I've waited a long time for this day .....and it has come!  I was like a kid on his birthday getting his first bike to ride up and down the road! There is a lot of details... Way too many to list tonight. Tonight is a family night so I'm short on time.. Fact I'm killing two birds with one stone in the bathroom here about to hop in the shower... Takes me awhile to post things... I'll post up the specs of the build,.. What was done,,, and all the internals put into the engine etc... Perhaps tomorrow... I'm not exactly sure.... I have a pretty full day of things to do tomorrow around the house both inside and out... So it's going to take awhile to post up a detailed post of what was done to the outside and inside of this motor, both machine work wise, and parts...I'm not done... Still have a ways to go on the truck,,, but it's coming together I can just feel it! Can't wait to feel the rumble!  Anyways I gotta go for tonight! Thanks for all the support guys! The truck is nearly done and there... Just a couple months and it should be ready to rock and roll... First engine run should happen in a few weeks. I'm leaving to go hunting this Saturday morning and returning the following weekend ... Perhaps Sunday evening... Not exactly sure yet... Pray for us,.. It's a father and son hunting trip,, with my injuries it hasn't happened in a solid long 8 years ! I just want to spend some good time with my dad and make some memories....well guys... I'll try to get on tomorrow to post some info up...
