The price was right, I've never seen such a great deal on such a low mileage engine.

Now I just have to get some behind the dash wiring to get the gauges to work and I'm set.

Sometime next spring, the Fummins is priority because I need something to drive and a tow rig to pull the Dodge in the first place.

Last nite I pulled the timing cover and luckily I have the updated housing as far as I can tell. Cleaned all the blow by oil off and got a new crank seal installed, will be reinstalling the cover later this afternoon.
