Tony,
Very possibly could have been, but not by me. Not sure how many PO my truck has been through, or what was done, or even if the engine was the orginal. Id it from block numbers. I wanted to drive it while the big block is being built and it cooperated for several months, wished it would have lasted longer, I miss driving it alot.
It will come back, bigger, better, and stronger.
Can't wait.
Rick
