So here is another update! got the thing running...
minor issues to work out. the powersteering bracket is bent? or out of place? it sits crooked, and throws the belt... not sure... may just heat brackets and give it some love back to where it needs to be.
the radiator that came with the truck is a single core small thing that doesnt fit right, and wont keep my engine cool enough. after running for 20 minutes will creep above 210.
So, I ordered a 454 radiator. 3 core. big ole thing. I pick it up in about an hour. will throw that in with some new coolant and should be good!
may drive it to work tomorrow IF I can figure out power steering pump alignment
