That is a clean truck, big block? I know it's not a 6.5 diesel.
 
It's getting to be quite the jigsaw puzzle - I took it apart so long ago I have to figure out what goes where again.......... :BangHead:

Ya. Every thing looks to be in the exact same position I saw it in about a year ago.:poke: :D
 
I was working on another beer, when my wife sent me this picture. She says it’s kind of cute. I don’t know that much about Valiants or that year.

Yep, FABO is a good site, misfits like me are over there! A member in Kimball has a bad '66 with a 340. His wife bought a matching car in stock form, and had to learn how to drive a clutch to drive the car home!

Fighting an oil consumption issue on the powerstroke (it's eating about 1qt of oil every 70 miles). I suspect it's an internal o-ring issue. Ripped all 8 injectors out and sent them to my builder.
