Wiring, Fueling, And Firing-Almost

We swear, our ongoing 4.0L, NV3550, and NP208 conversion into our '68 J2000 pickup is so close to completion we can taste it. As you'll see in this issue, the wiring and fuel system is sorted and we're just waiting on a couple odds and ends to arrive before we'll be driving our (hopefully) powerful and efficient J-truck down the road.

We still need to have driveshafts built, toss the radiator back in, modify the exhaust from the 232 engine to fit our new, longer drivetrain, and throw a steering box into the equation so our power steering pump doesn't run dry and explode. We'll bring you all those details next time. Until then, check our progress so far.
