Thanks for all your input guys. And don't worry, I'm taking lots of pictures of the teardown. I'll post once I get some real progress done. Right now the engine is off the hoist onto a stand. Going to do some basic housekeeping on it. KDP fix, clean/paint. Plan on running either 370 marine injectors, or 5x14 if I can justify the extra cost. I'm thinking of advancing the timing to maybe to 16 or 17 degrees while the timing cover is off. I'll have to do more research on that.
This project definitely going to take some time, after I'm done with the Cummins, I'll move on to rebuilding the 47rh with a new single disc
TC. I'm thinking Goerend. Not sure if I'll need to invest in billet flexplate and input. But we'll see.
Then it's on to working on the divorced NP205. I have the seal kit sitting here waiting to go in. Bearings look fine so I'll leave them alone.
My Dana 60 is out of a 2007 Super Duty, so it's ready for coils already, just going to make some new radius arms. Stock ones are too bulky.
I still need to find a Sterling 10.5 for the rear, but I have time, and those shouldn't be too hard to find.
So yeah, I'll be busy for a while. The electrical stuff is the only thing I know I'll need help on, even with something as simple as a 12 valve. I'll keep everyone updated.
