I was able to get the motor off the picker and onto a stand today. I pulled the pan and rocker cover off to get cleaned up. While its off I plan on replacing the oil pump and having the pickup tube hot tanked.

I pulled the Exhaust manifold off to get the exhaust studs replaced and have it resurfaced. Im also having a friend of mine grove and cut a 6in SBC balancer to replace the stock one thats on there.

A new water pump is on order so I should have most of the engine bolted up and ready to go. Now if I could just fine some 6cyl Frame mounts...
