I think the engine in my truck is an 81A...

i concur. What do you want out of this truck?

Ive been driving a motor that just needed a burnt valve replaced ($7), now been 5 yrs. great compression. Plan at least another 5 or more.

Also have another one with a full blown rebuild.

I want to drive it (a lot) but I also want to show it off - compression, cam and loud duals for the sound factor - dual carb flathead for the show factor. I live in "rusty land" - most people have never seen the type of vehicles which were being driven more than 40 years ago.
