not to add more to the list but i believe if it were me doing that job i`d take a good look at the foot brake valve while most every thing is out of the way

Did that earlier, No leaks, application seems up to snuff when had running prior or when had outside source tied to it.

And back at it early this morning
May be time to take a break and let the dog out awhile. Cam is in time backlash set, injectors in, rockers on and torqued, deloused alternator/ac bracket some. Have some small details to work on but awaiting radiator anyway, mainly a small plate for rear harness hole.
Was 5F as started this morning just now into teens. Shop is a balmy 40ish.

Busy all day
Loads of small stuff getting done
Need to scrub and repaint the actual valve covers, also need to replace the 1/2npt lower rad pipe drain plug nothing here for it. Pan is on and 7 gallon in it so far, awaiting turbo Orings and gaskets to complete for pressure lube.
