Ok since Feb I've done alot. Kinda lost updates since the server went down. But here's a recap. The original motor was fine but I wanted it better. I pulled the motor and this is what was done:
Timing set, new front seal in t/c, rear main, oil pan, intake, v/c gaskets. Replaced tons of other lil gaskets here and there too many to remember. Block painted, intake and v/c powder coated. Turbo rebuilt by Bison who knows his shit. Complete front suspension removed, powder coated and all new steering, bushings, etc etc. Kinda got otta control. Headers and all ceramic coated......anyways did a final inspection last night and she fired. Smooth as he'll and just at 50 for oil pressure. Hooked her up to the old school snap on brick scanner and all seems in order. Thanks to all that assisted in all my questions. Especially members Jan, Joe from New York, Bison, and Robert. Finally I can get to some cruise nights and shows. Woodward next month.....stoked.

Wow that looks great, makes me want to build another engine lol
Very good eye for detail there ... the black coated headers looks great and better / more stock than my silver ones.
So fun putting stuff back together with all freshly powder coated parts and what not, glad to been able to help during your project and pleased your back on the road again.

Thanks for sharing !
