That looks great!

How's it run?

Good so far! Only have 1 or 200 miles on it so far. I'm going to go retrieve the gooseneck trailer tonight where I left it at my folks house when my truck started making the funny noise which I believe was an intake valve issue. Once warm, it runs really smooth, like I remember it doing. Cold it isn't rough or too knocky, it just sounds like a cold diesel

Maybe 2 holes in the plugs would have been better but its done now. something is better than the nothing we 7.3 engines have run with for many years. Get the engine timed and your going to really enjoy the new rid. Don't baby it either. Run it like its earning a living for you. Baby the engine and you will break it in many thousands of miles.

No Babying

I'll say your not babying it. In pic number 2 it looks like you can remove the front tires and change them they seem really high from all the gooseneck weight in the bed of the rig. But thats the best place for trailer weight...
