I feel like we have heard this before...

Scott didn't your Dad drive the truck one year while you were strapped to the trailer to work on wiring while cruising down I-80?

 

That was mostly because my Dad just doesn’t like me Jeff.

That Man has been all kinds of good to us over the years.

Ah! Now you got Tickety Boo weeping antifreeze, drooling like a Black Lab looking at prime quarters.
Now I gotta put a new water neck on, always something.

 

With any luck I should have this one running this weekend.

 

Well I'm finally gonna get to install the hemi tonight only ten days late and thousands of dollars short lol it's a good possibility it will run as well but I'm not counting on it yet lol

Oh hell no scott I was gonna install this thing last night but I'm now dealing with the fact of the starter and flywheel ring gear don't match 392 has 172 tooth ring gear and 331-354 has 146 so I'm digging through the starter pile trying to find the correct starter drive As gene Winfield says "everyday is a school day" and this thing is schooling me for sure I can tell you this much I will be a hemi genius after I get this thing together lol

So would that be a genius on what not to do?

 

James you are correct lol I do not have the correct starter but I will have a new correct ring gear this afternoon so a ring gear swap and then I "should " be able to install it lol here's hoping anyway
