Not that are in any better condition, but if I can develop a process for reversing the effects of rust I might be in business.

so what you gonna do?
switch to a big block, doesn't it fit right in?
Dang that thing is purdy!Tranny aditive worked ok. The Oliver clan concluded I might have a cracked piston, but that aint no thang.
I will keep the current 6.2 until I find another one within my price range.

How could your other ones be in worse shape? Sounds to me like it's time for you to learn how to rebuild a motor.
so what would that be, free or have someone pay you to haul it offjk maybe theres somthin at the lot
A piston costs about $35. A rod will cost about the same. A full gasket set is about $100. I'd bet the heads are in good-enough shape.
It's Pigpen, just replace the offending piston, and barring any futher internal destruction, call it good.
so is it time for this yet? http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/showthread.php?t=454424
I like that guys boatsides, definitely need to do that. I'm thinking something like that, but not quite that aggressive.
Boats and hoes
Stumble in to the liquor store
With a dollar-fifty for a bottle of wine,
I know just what I'm lookin for
Thunderbird will do just fine.
Yes, do big boat sides like that, chop the top and rake the windshield back. Then narrow the front, drop that aluminum radiator down between the frame rails, and drop the front of the hood.
Boatsides would be pretty pimp
Anyone ever do some boatsides running from the bottom of the frame to the rocker panel, without cutting the rockers out? Like a mini boatside, with some sliders or steps welded onto the outside?
The other two 6.2s I have are stupid rusty on the outside, but decent looking on the inside. The biggest problem with them is that the exhaust manifold bolts are rusted solidly to the heads on 3 of the 4 heads I have. They are rusted so bad there is no trace of the bolt head and no way that I can see to get them off. If the heads on my truck are in decent shape, I could possibly use them, but I have no idea what the combustion chambers look like on them. There are a few other things that need to be done before I mess with the motor, but when the time comes I will probably just snag a piston from one of the other motors and stick it in there. I think I am going to boat side it first, then narrow the front and come up with some kind of tube protection. What size tube should I use for the boatsiding? I have some 2x2 1/4 wall square tube and 3x6 1/4 wall at my shop, the 2x2 seems a little small and the 3x6 a little big, but I dont want to buy any if I dont have to.
