Thanks for asking. The truck is running wonderfully. When I started the rebuild I had no idea that I would be using it as a road tractor, but that's what it turned into. 250 mile trips with the return pulling up to 3 ton loads. Preformed wonderfully maintaining 60 mph excepting for steep, long hills. In the next year I plan to rebuild the engine (it's smoking on long down hills with the throttle closed). When I do that I'll put in duel carbs and tuned headers, shouldn't slow down even on steep hills then. 265 cu. in. & 4.89 differentials.
