Good to see another carrier coming to life. Mine took three and a half years but now it's done over 100 miles and I still love it! If you've still got some broken studs or electrical conduit to get apart, while the parts are just glowing quench them with cold water. They will then come apart easily.

I got side tracked
I have been a bit side tracked of late with the engine being at the reconditioners.
I have pogressed a bit more on my Chev truck, that is another story and another thread. The engine reconditioners have: cleaned the heads & surface plained them (I now have them back) block has been cleaned, head surface area and intake manifold surface area machined block has 3 sleeves in it and the rest bored out to 60" oversize crankshaft ground they have purchased all the pistons, rings, bearings from the USA they have the cam shaft and new bearings for installation they also have all other rotating parts for balancing I am expecting it back this week or next, then I will clean it down for assembly. I have to place an order soon for items from Mac's Auto as I require more valve guides and valves.
