As you can see they cleaned up nicely.

11/18 Got bored and painted the heads. They look pretty cool with 500 deg High Temp engine paint on them.

Well the engine is back together tonight we cranked it over but it wouldn't start. At that point I smelled gas I found the fuel rail under the intake was leaking... arrrggg I took the intake manifold back off the aluminum fuel fitting crush washers must have fallen off and better yet I can't find it. I also noticed the water pump was leaking

Fuel rail leaking

Water pump leak...

Fixed the fuel rail leak and got it running it runs like crap but it's a start. I may have to mess around with a few vaccum lines and do a timing adjustment but it lives...

Hey dude....just wondering how that FJ80 setup is working for you. Also, if you dont mind me asking, how much did it run you? One more, what are you using for shocks? Oh yeah, your truck is sick....

Yeah, the um...gears I broke were um.... 4.88s. $2,000 dollars later my truck is done sporting a set of 5.29s with a lifetime warrenty. I took my truck back to the sight were I broke it and I am now actually kind of glad that the 4.88s gave up. 5.29s are sweet.
