    Well still no valve springs, I don't know what the hell is taking so long, bought Lunati's off eBay from a performance shop in Mississippi, same place I bought my cam. Dang I hope they come next week, the weather is finally above 50 degrees so it's comfortable to work in a non-heated garage. I am itching to get that thing in!

    Found it on the Jegs website, haven't actually ordered it yet, waiting for a complete list I need from them to make one order, to save with the international shipping costs.

    Update pics coming soon!

    Do you gotta deal with the gayness that is an e-test Shaun? I know if I lived 15 minutes West I wouldn't have to deal with it. Scratch that your truck is old enough to be classed as a hot rod, I think.

    This is the one I'm going with Zebra

    Centerforce DF188450 Centerforce Dual Friction Clutches

    Devin, no e-tests for me, thankfully I live in Renfrew County where there is no emissions testing, 2km west of here when you cross into Ottawa city limits and cross the Lanark County line, you're SOL, that's e-test country.

    Anyways here's some pics. Started on the truck last weekend, decided to do it at home so I could pick away at it and take my time, and not rush it. If I did it at work I'd have to take a friday off to do the swap and finish it up on saturday with wiring and all that crap. Anywho, I got the old boat anchor pulled out, waiting on my clutch and flywheel so I can bolt the engine and tranny together and put it in the truck. Last thing I need is the front accessories, that'll be ordered when I order the clutch/flywheel from Jegs, and she'll be ready to fire. I'm STILL waiting on my freaking valve springs from this place in Mississippi, ordered my cam from them too and it took a while, but not this long! This has been over a month now!

    Anyways here's some pics

    Yeah yeah, I know, it's dirty now, but it won't be when it's done! Gonna touch up all the rust spots on the frame too before she goes in.
