Here is the start of my fuel injected OBDI 360 5.9 Comanche Build Bought the truck for $225.00 Here is how she stood PO said it had a cracked piston or something like that....since I knew what I wanted to do with it I haven't even checked it. Body is straight and no major dents. Pulled the drive-train, wiring, and everything in the engine bay. Oh yeah, help has been contributed by my brother and my friends Purchased a 360 5.9 engine with about 150xxx miles from a salvage yard along with a 46RH transmission, full wiring harness, computer, sensors and everything else for $600.00 Motor has got a clean up since then and all new gaskets, timing chain and paint. Powder coated oil pan, t cover, intake and accessory bracket by eastwood companys economy powder coating kit and moms old oven. ,,, Since I work at napa its easy to find, figure and look at what parts may or may not work. Found some engine mounts that would work but after some initial mock-up we found out that the stock manifolds would make it hard to clear the firewall and push the engine to far forward. So ordered some bare block hugger headers from summit and VHT ceramic coated them, since right now I don't have the money to throw high dollar parts at it. Fabricated some motor and transmission mounts and had my brother weld them in. Installed the engine and trans to see if the hood would fit? It FIT!!!!!! Great now its a sleeper :cheers: More to come.......
