I’m at a crossroads with this truck.
I’ve already sheared off 1 air inlet on the head and I wouldn’t rule out that happening to at least 1 more. If that were to happen, I’d probably pull the head. If I pull the head, I’d want to do some decking, porting, etc. If I deck, port, etc I should rebuild the whole motor.
I have a built 2F that came out of the magical parts truck (Thanks for informing me, @yardbird), but I wanted to put that in a truck with a better rust situation. So, maybe what I need to do is get a frame blasted and powder coated, set the drivetrain in it, and then just swap the body. I’m all ears, but I think bang for the buck this may be the way to go.
