Re: Doing alot of upgrades
Hey guys and gals, I played around in the garage a little today as my back & left leg were acting ok. I went to my buddy's and tuned his motor in yesterday afternoon so I got to play with my motor today. When I pulled the valve covers & intake and saw how clean it was I said wow, I've got a decent low mileage crate motor here (it has the plate on the side of the block that tells me it's a crate motor). I pulled the front off the motor and saw the timing chain and it looks like this motor don't have 500 miles on it, no wonder it was holding 75lbs of oil pressure cold & 55lbs warm. I labeled all the lifters to the cam lobe and I will have it & the chain & gear for sale. I've got the rags in the water pump holes so they are soaking up the antifreeze and it's dripping into drain pans instead of in the oil pan. I will pull the bottom gear maybe Wednesday as I have doctor's tomorrow but here are a few pictures of how nice the inside is. Let me know your opinions on how many miles are on it.
