Thanks 55 tractor, I figure it might be time to hand it over to a mechanic because with me being a "Rookie" mechanic, (and when I say rookie, I am being very kind to myself!), the possibility of tanking this engine after all the money and time I spent on it realllly scares me! I did all this so that I could learn by doing, but I was expecting to do all my learning while I was driving my truck with it's new engine, and rebuilding the old 350 that came out of it. As it is I'm just about out of my one year warranty on the new engine, and it's only got about 2.5 hours on it.
