Thank you.Great build thread.
How many cans of pj1?Thank you.
~Forney brass hand brush, small and large
~PJ1 Super Cleaner
~Shop Vac
~Razor blade scraper for gasket on block
~Hours and hours of patiently scrubbing and a few cuss words
I will clean again when tape comes off and scrub the block Iron to a final state. I had a handful of extremely dense carbon spots that I took a VERY dull flat blade screwdriver to. I would gently apply pressure to fracture those areas, then follow up with the vacuum, brush and cleaner again. There was no way they would have come off, had I not done so.

Dang, you broke the piggy bank a couple months ago? Gett’n it done “while you’re in there”. Makes sense to me. I should have replaced my fan I suppose as it has around 300k on it. It didn’t seem brittle and isn’t cracked so…. back on it went.

One of the blades has a nick. While it has always been there, I figured it will be getting taxed more with the heavier weight oil in the clutch. To add to that, parts availability keeps slipping away and getting more expensive, so I see it as a good investment. Plastics fail.

Love seeing these new OEM parts. Your truck is going to love it all. What I don’t love? Peeling the friggin stickers off the rad hoses.

Goof Off...
Thought, the stock rad was not available. Is it a 2 or 3 row? Is there any manufacturing name or markings on it? I just started during research on this & trying to learn. I see the foam, I need to do that to mine.

Derale power steering cooler upgrade. I painted the cooler, used Gates power steering hose for LP side and the Rein HP hose. Once I get the head back on I will finish running the LP lines. Hoses will have braided and spiral abrasion sleeving added to them. *Note: Derale cooler comes with 3/8" NPT inlets NOT 1/4" NPT as advertised online.
