Those plugs look great if you ask me . Check the gap for S&G's.

Don't recommend it. It could damage your lift pump, or rather will most ilkely

Finished up changing timing set, water pump, thermostat, rocker arms, radiator and external trans. cooler. Glad it's all done, working in this TX. sun is brutal. Took a lot of breaks but that sun is just too damn hot.

Changed out the old brake pads and rotors and put new ones on. It was my first time doing all of this (19 yrs old.), and after I did everything on my own, I felt accomplished! haha

Bought the truck some gas, ICE Turtle Wax, and wheel polish. Hopefully she'll be shiny tomorrow
