Re: 360 to 390 build
Well sorry for no updates for a while been busy, but have made some real good progress on my 390 and C6 transmission rebuilds. The motor and trans are all finished. Motor is running real nice although the truck is not able to drive, at least I have these two hurdles are accomplished. I'm pretty proud because I did these on my own, except for some help from the nice folks on this forum. 
Here a few pics of my finished product, let me know what you think.

Re: 360 to 390 build
It seems to run great. I have the timing set at 10 degrees BTDC and the cam is broke in, just not able to drive it.SecondCamperSpecial wrote:Looks great, hope it runs as good as it looks.
