Here's what I've been up to! Bought a 97 3500 dually chevy outta Tennesee for cheap with a blown motor. Yesterday was it's first start! Always scary, lifters and new rings where making some terrible noises at first but quited down when the oil pressure rose. Here's my "documentary" on YouTube.

Not to bad for an 18 year old kid eh? :lol:

Looking good! First startups are always nerve racking. Do those not have any way of priming the pump before startup?

Not without modifying anything.
