    I agree with what the others have said, at minimum I would use stainless all thread and sleeve it.

    Took my engine to the machine shop.

    About 10-15 years ago I helped a friend and his dad with their stock car. We never followed Comp Cams break-in procedure, we'd get the motor installed make sure it fired and ran properly then head to the race track. He run the race, which would be about 15 minutes going from 3000-7200 rpm and we...

    Free a Stuck Engine

    Brake fluid works pretty well also, but I like using diesel too. Just don't be in a hurry, it might come unstuck then you might get away with just a hone and re-ring it. Marvel's mystery oil is supposed to work wonders on stuck engines too, just another option lol. Is it a 2 stroke, if so I'd...

    ....ramblings and paint....

    What about using something like Plasti-dip with sand or something for grit. Then if you don't like it or get tired of it you can just peal it off.

    My 49' Ford Rat Rod build...

    I agree the bed needs to be raised. If it was me I'd raise it to the beltline on the cab then add metal to the bottom o the box sides to match the bottom of the cab. Your project is looking good, keep on posting those pics and updates!

    1948 ford f1 field find rat rod project

    I've seen that truck before, it was on craigslist in Winterset I believe lol. Like others have said, unless the frame is junk that's under I'd just upgrade brakes and such and go from there. By the time you get a good s10 frame and do all the work to switch it over I think you'd be better off...
