Moved over all the periphials. Rebuilt alternator, flex plate on the drive, and all the brackets.
Pulled the head to see if there was anything to save. There wasn't. The previous owner told me it was a high compression motor and sometimes needed a push to get moving. But with the head off I can't imagine that was the case...... Froze up like the arctic.
I cheated and used the crane to pull the motor out. Many of the old salts around here told me to use the boom, but I didn't want to work that hard. The crane flew the old motor right into the back of my truck! For $60 bucks it was a deal!
New diesel on the crate. It's ready to go and waiting for crane day. The new one is almost exact, but the transmission is an inch longer......

The hardest part was getting the exhaust and all the brackets off the old motor. 25 years in the salt environment makes things a little sticky and uncooperative....
the old 5411 universal.
Stripped and ready to send back to the guys at the shop
