One of my parts trucks has mismatched bell housings. The previous owner told me that they used the truck extensively on a pecan orchard and the truck was working great when they parked it years ago. The farm shut down and the truck sat for 25 or 30 years after that.

Do you have any more detailed pictures of your K&N upgrade? I really like that.
Looks great! Is your truck up and driving? Some video and more pictures of it would be cool
