Thanks. I am disapointed but atleast it is just the one part (motor) that has to be fixed. Its not like the entire truck has to come apart again...
I'll pull the motor on Tuesday and get started on the way back to driveability. As I said before, without the folks here on the Stovebolt web site I wouldn't even try this project. i read posts here everyday and see that if we just keep trying part by part, we can save these old trucks. Its just a bump in the road... Thanks everyone for all your support.
