hello Larry1974. Glad you got it running. When I started my 1951 for the first time rat and mice junk came flying out of the exhaust pipe. What was surprising is the truck has never smoked. Still doesn't smoke. I had to get under the truck and pry all the junk out of the clutch /bell housing area. It didn't have a cover on it. That engine is now in my 1949 1/2 ton. It runs great but doesn't have very much oil pressure when it idles. Anyway, I'm running on here, I hope your engine turns out to be a good one. Steven
