Brought this home with me Friday afternoon. Gonna swap some stuff around to get it setup using some parts off the old one today after work and gonna push the truck out to pressure wash the front end and get it cleaned up and ready for assembly. May try to set it in place tomorrow after work solo. Will see how motivated I'm feeling basically...

Fired up the new used motor. Has a VERY LOUD ticking noise coming from what sounds like a valvetrain area on the passenger side. Going to hold off on running it again till my uncle can swing by and give me a hand with it. Could be normal from just sitting and a matter of letting it run a bit more but I'm a bit gun shy... Uncle is a 30+ year professional tech so just having another ear/opinion won't hurt. Stuck lifter or something is almost what it sounds like.
