I did make sure the underside was covered real well because I don't want to have to paint anything under here now. Just a to refresh memory what I did: New quality gaskets everywhere, brass freeze plugs, new cam and lifters with about stock specs on cam but a little more low end grunt but keeping smooth idle, new valve seals, double roller timing chain with tensioneer, new HD Milodon water pump (would've liked to put in a MP one but had too many early failures), steering brace, plugs, wires, cap, and some other stuff I probably forgot now. Took a garden hose to block and flushed out a lot of crap. Distilled water and coolant now.
