Out with the old!

Post by BMJs 67 »

Finally pulled the engine out of the 67! We found a few surprises,,,, The tranny crossmember was not bolted to the frame, It was bolted at the mount though, so I guess that's good enough :roll: The starter had a stack of washers on all three bolts that was four deep, but, I guess that would have worked too :( . I took the tranny to Milford for a rebuild tonight so with any luck, I should be driving soon!!!

The new engine is done,,,, Only real mods are Headers and a cast four barrel intake. The pretty black paint and stainless fasteners should get me an extra 50 or 60 hp though :lol: The errant hacking was my work. It will get new exhaust after I run open headers untill the neighbors call me in 8) As for the grease, I've got 2300psi of pressurized water and a bunch of Simple Green that should make short work of that deal. If not,,,,, I've got a four year old that loves to help me clean stuff.
