[QUOTE="ain'tstuckjustresting, post: 1325666, member: 18302"] Yeah the motor seems pretty easy. This engine is one of the most gummed up I've ever seen so I might do a rebuild just to be safe. I haven't done a comp test yet or checked the bearings but a **** load of sludge everywhere and 174,000mi. Need to find a resource for cleaning up the throttlebody, it's fawking gross to the point the plate sticks. Was thinking of calling affordable fuel inj. to get a custom harness and prom with O2, Knock, Vss, & EGR delete. Tranny is still up for debate. Had planned on adapting the R150 to the 4.3 but alot of the threads I've read people regret not going with an auto. The adapter and all the clutch componants really add up quick and I know I could sell my R150 to 21spl case adapter pretty easy. Brad wants me to consider a SM465 w/ my duals but I haven't found the adapter yet. Puting a TH350 in seems pretty simplemand I have alot more experience with them. Wheeled fullsize for years before my TOY. Still doing alot of reading. Might start pulling the knocker this weekend though just to show some progress. I haven't decided if I'll be nice to the 3.0 and try to sell some parts off it or smash it! We have a 135,000lb Excavator in the yard that would make quick work of it and make me smile. But, then I have alot of pieces to pick up. Oh well back to the info search...:awesomework: [/QUOTE]
