Everything looked really good with a light coating of oil. The only issue that I saw was there was some surface rust on one of the counterweights.
Wanted to thank you all for the advise. Yesterday I pulled the engine and started in on trying to find the problem. Where I ended up was finding...
I appreciate all of the replies... guess I'll be pulling it out of the car and going through it.
Thanks for the quick replies. As best I can tell it's a 38-48 engine, but most likely post WWII. - 24 bolts on the valve covers - crab style, bolt...

It's all just mock-up right now. Finding things like headers that don't fit, need to come up with a different transmission cooler since the ports...
Understood. Because I'm planning on running this with the full hood, I wasn't able to run the same A/C, PS, Alt setup that I had in the truck. I...
Thank you, I hope that this meets my expectations (at a minimum).
It's all eye candy... I know it's not traditionally traditional, but I'm working with what I've got. The 350 came out of my '72 Truck... I...
Thanks, I just wish the circumstances were different on the cars I've acquired... I'm just a guy that knows people that know people......
Aside from the engine dress up kit, I’ve continued to roll along a little bit. I’ve spent a bunch of time trying to pull things off of the body...

Thanks. Yes, I am planning on running the car full-fendered. I was a little bit inspired from a Hotrod Magazine article that followed Hotrods...
Got some more work done this weekend. I figured that I'd go ahead and disconnect the fenders and start working on removing the body mounts. I...
I've got a Chevy Crate HO-350 that I pulled out of my truck when I did the Cummins conversion with that.
These are pictures from last weekend, as I started the tear-down process on it, getting it ready to move over to the new chassis which should be...
Some more eye candy for you guys. This was about 3 weeks ago when it was sitting in my garage. [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG]
So about a month ago, I've stumbled onto a new project. I had a 1930 5-window follow me home to sit along side my '29 Sports Coupe. [IMG] [IMG]...
Thanks everyone.... I'm still pulling the plan together, and trying to nail down as much as I can before I start... I'll keep this posted as I...
Excellent work... I think I'll keep an eye on this as I am looking for ideas on how to replace the wood in my 30 Chevy as well.
Howdy everyone... Well, I think I'm finally going to start on the project that's been sitting in my garage for the last year and a half. I...
