wow, thanks for all the great responces guys! 
korn111685, yeah there's no smog pump on the 91; that little pulley you see is just a tentioner pulley, and the metal cover sheild on the front of it is painted silver
4banginRunner, yes the t-shirt was the right size, lmao
89OldBlue, thank you! yes it definately going to be a reliable daily driver, and occational weekend trail rig, so I'm trying to build it streetable, but still capable off the road; that's why next will be armor in the form of bumpers and sliders, then I'm moving underneith to install 4.88's and lockers, as well as a better t-case crossmember with a little more clearance 
89topless, LMAO, that's pretty funny, lol
so today it rained ALL AFTERNOON... Florida this time of the years absolutely SUCKS!!!
so I kept in the garage, cleaned up a bit cause I had a pretty good mess in there, lol
I also went ahead and installed these little guys we'll see how well they work out

i have a six pack say's he's putting it in tonight... 
builds like this get me one more step closer to building one.... mines only got 30,000miles or more on the rebuild, but looks like a 200,000mile motor.. just not as leaky.. i just
i cant wait for the next video.. if it's one thing this guy can do it's build the mess out of a 22re and make some bitchin azz videos to go along with it..

korn, you get to keep your six pack
came home to the engine bay looking like this
a FAR cry from what it use to look like, if you can remember back in time
looked like it was going to try to rain me out again, so I was prepared today!
that's right, see that hoist lowered down there
YES SIR!!!
it's good to see now that I've got PLENTY of room for the electric fan
lol, after putting the t-bar bolts in, I only threaded them in so far; there's about 1/4" of thread left open at the top of the nut, and it was enough to support the weight of the truck with no motor. after setting the weight of the motor on it, it almost hit the bump stops, lol, so it's all raked forward now
so tomorrow, I've got to throw this baby on
drop in the radiator, fill her with fluids, do all the final checks and give it a once over for any loose and untightened bolts, and then fire her up! my father's going to be here a 8 am, and it'll probably be fired up by noon! I'M SO EXCITED!!!
oh and I can't believe I've never taken a pic of the temp truck, lmao
silly 2wd...

oh no doubt!
maybe not of first startup, but after a short break in and a valve adjustment, I'll get some running vids that capture some good sound, and maybe a drive-by and acceleration
after the break-in, I'll get a vid of the truck burning up the old tires sitting in my back yard out on some back road, just for kicks

i dont understand...
my 22r runs like a champ.. 75-80mph all day (not uphill) but wont even think about spining the tires on pavment.. and their only 31's? maybe it's b/c they are super grip non slip $600 mud tires?? hahahaha
or maybe i dont have any power in that 22r...
i dunno.. it runs i dont care if it makes tire smoke.. thats what the goat is for

My 2wd 22RE will do about a 20ft one-wheel-peel with a bare bed and 205 tires on dry asphalt on a good day. Then again, the Pirellis on it are absolute garbage...
