It runs pretty good after a lot of work.
Both #5 and 6 sparkplugs broke off in the head when I first started. Water had collected in the head recesses evry time it rained apparently. Removed the pieces, freed up valves on both cylinders, new water pump, new crank pulley and seal, rebuilt the fuel pump-(made my own diaphram), new breather and fuel lines, made bracket for alternator, and a new exhaust manifold.
I made the "test stand" so I could run the engine and test the transmission/Clutch before painting the assembly to go back into the truck. The fuel tank is a outboard motor tank, and the radiator is the actual PW radiator.
Next step is sandblasting and painting the frame.
