Got started at TJs today and made some good progress in the disassembly. Big thanks to TJ for helping out with removing the heads, it would have been impossible on my own. There was a comment made about how I was sitting INSIDE the engine bay... with the engine still in it. Gotta love the room in the truck, now if only I was as fast as the cars *sigh*
Getting started
Bye bye radiator
All that's left is the timing cover
Tomorrow will be the off-engine work on the heads, timing cover swap, cam swap, block prep, and possibly starting the reassembly.

Yeah, I'm doing a 6.1L manifold swap. I've been asked to do a full write up on it for my truck forum so I'll put it up on here now too.
What forum? I'll join and read over there too.
Thanks.

It's completed! Thanks TJ for the space and all the help. I'll be at Timmy's on Sunday if anyone want to take a peek.
Hell, you did all the work. I was just getting in the way.
So......? How'd everything turn out?
