    Well the 454 lost oil pressure when warm and started smoking. So its looking like time for a rebuild.

    Had to order a radiator as the one I had don't fit, also ordered a set of headers. Got a rear bumper on it. It runs, moves, stops, turns, just needs the radiator and the exhaust to be drivable.

    Harness is mostly installed. Installed a new fuel pump this evening, need more fuel line to get that all buttoned up. Got the wrong u joint strap kit twice now. And my gage cluster circuit film is destroyed by rodents.

    Got my 85 off to the transmission shop so they fix whatever it is that they got wrong on the bench rebuild. Hope to have it back midweek. Going to order a painless performance harness for the 1 ton next week. I did the same thing on my 79 c10 and its been awesome.

    Got it to bark off by filling the float bowls. Has 30 psi oil pressure at idle and over 60 total under throttle. Should be a decent runner.

    Looks like I need to find a transmission mount, still need alternator bracket, and an entire underhood rewire. Hope to get it together enough to see if it runs ok today. Still need to get some plugs to do that though.
