I'll post some progress photos as I go along.  I couldn't find a water pump anywhere that had 3/4" shaft and didn't want to bush stuff down to 5/8" or look for other stuff..  NAPA found a place in Lubbock that rebuilt this one, ouch....$279.;  I'm sure I can get the name of the shop if anyone needs it, or, there may be plenty of pump rebuilders elsewhere.  Got the engine bay ready.

2" Wal mart strap.  Rated for 1200lbs.   Have lifted at least 3 engines with it.     Threw it away cause it was getting greasy.   That disintegrates the material and weakens it.

Nervy?   I used a ratchet strap,  not a lifting strap!   Lifted a 332 Lincoln Y that way too.   Believe me,  that's a heavy beast.  Especially when the bell and flywheel are still on the back.

That's cool.  I've actually run the strap under the intake manifold and used it to lift an engine in and out!

Yep, 12-15.  20 is pretty high.  That is more like the lower end of a grade 8 spec.

Greetings: Checked my 57 car shop manual and 64 F100 manual, both list the rocker shaft to cylinder head torque as:  12-15 foot-lbs..   Hope this helps, JEFF...........    That '57 truck is going to be mighty fine.
