The engine I bought unfortunately is not a big cam. So just going to rebuild mine. Using the heads off from the donor engine. If the holes for the oil squirters aren't there. Then I will just drill them out and use the oil squirters from the other block.

The transmission on the other engine is an eaton Fuller 5 speed. Its dimensions are bigger than the spicer on the 5 ton. So not going to gain anything by keeping that transmission. It seems that no matter what I do for a transmission, that the transfer case will have to be moved back and it may...
