Default Nose Job Worked

Hi All

Well the nose job and engine swap worked, the truck can now breath and it doesn't seem to overheat. Took the truck for an extended drive today ambient air temp 29C or 84F and the truck never got much over 190F which is a far cry from boiling into the recovery tank which it did before.

Also now that the clutch completely disengages the truck shifts like a dream. The clutch problem was caused by a clutch disk that actually was sticky to the touch.

Cheers Phil
