Dan's ratty truck

according to google "Some pearls can develop in a period of six months. Larger pearls can take up to four years to develop". Therefore the sand will be sticking around longer so I can get something out of this Raw deal.

Not much has changed with this in awhile. Engine should be done very soon and I made a little progress tonight on the rear end and shock relocation. Most of my slacking has been because I just love laying on a dirt floor. #dirtfloorpoor

Maybe I'll bring my concrete slab over and put it under your pole barn so we can really get some shit done

Your truck should make more than enough power to drag a slab.

Dropped the axle back off for powder coating and I got to see my long lost engine!!!!!!!! It was already assembled except front and rear covers as well as oil pan because I forgot to bring them the ARP hardware, should be done tomorrow.

Also bear with me on the axle color, I know it's a little to fancy and on the edge of being brodozer but....... The color nearly matches the Method Roost wheels and it changes color drastically depending on lighting. As you can see in the 2 different pics its bronze/dirty gold in the picture with a light shined on it but black in the picture where the light is shined away, pretty cool stuff I think.

Here's some real life lighting pictures of the color it's getting.

Interesting I just got a call from the machine shop and they noticed the rocker arm bolts are hanging into the intake runner of the PRC220 CNC ported heads. Never seen this before but I suppose I never looked for it either. Stocker rockers with CHE trunion and stock bolts.
