Definitely. They've been the cheapest place for about all of my parts so far.

I always check there and Ebay. Rock Auto is usually the cheapest. And a great resource for part numberers

Sure is. I think I'm going to order a power steering pump from Rock Auto too sometime before the motor goes in. Mine makes a lot of noise. I also need a new Drier/Accumulator, but I need to call the dealer for part numbers first.

Coming along great! Doing the motor install youself?

The funny thing is that your parts list above is right about a single new monthly truck payment. Except you don't have to make 60 or 72 of them...

Boy don't I know between mine and my daughters. Lol

Did a few minor things today. I removed the oil dipstick tube, exhaust manifolds, spark plugs, spark plug wires, and the waterpump.

I envy you for being able to work on the engine outside of the truck!

Dropping in a new trans with it or nah? When I get my performabuilt trans rebuilt under warranty you can pick it up and buy it off of me. It will already be in PA lol
