My sarcastic answer is "Of course it is. It's an IDI!" The real answer is that it sounds like you've got a pretty good engine once you free it up. The tarp is an excellent idea. I've done that myself from time to time. I feel that the best way to clean up the head bolts is by using a wire wheel on a bench grinder if you have access to one.What do you guys think so far? Is she worthy?

Correct and it's not required. Most of them probably don't even attempt to work after all of these years.I believe the line from the lift pump has a heating element integrated. I just looked at mine and the wire is plugged into the glow plug harness just behind the thermostat. I have no idea if it is necessary.

If you can make something to go through your puller chain, just run a couple of 7/16" bolts into the head bolt holes in the block. If your chain has big enough links for those bolts to go through, all the much better. You will be fine as long as your bolts don't stick up very far above the deck surfaces.
What part of Oklahoma are you in? I may have a rear end with 3.55 gears to get rid of in the next few months. That could be another option other than the ZF5. Or you could do both if you want to.
Yep. Been there too.I'm in Edmond, OK.
