@@waynedavidson2691 The sale of the property deal that I had with a guy fell through.but the property is still on the market, and now I do have a little more time to do some of the work that needs to get done. So, maybe I CAN get back on the small block.
Was watching ,and noticed my shifter moving after I dropped it in nutreal.! Had Wayne check it out .he found both rear trany mount bolts were loose.the power of video!!!
@@waynedavidson2691 Ok, thanks. My small block is coming along slowly , so don't wait for a new video any time soon. Lol. I am thinking about finding a new pair of aluminum heads to replaced the 993's but that will depend mostly on cost.
@@waynedavidson2691 Thanks Wayne . Yes, I started following you on that small block because I too have just stumbled across a small block that I want to turn into a great project. But mine has been put to the side so that I can make an engine stand for it...first. then I'll get back on the main project. Lol. I have a series of videos just on making the engine stand , including ; " How to weld in your Pajamas" And " How NOT to do any kind of welding at all " This is my attempt at a little humor, I hope you find them on my channel.
@@waynedavidson2691 no. GM never used the “interceptor” name. maybe you are thinking “invader”? GM offered pop up pistons in production engines. .460 lift isn’t much either. 300hp engines carried that much lift. Any supporting documents about this interceptor? Or just stories from the liars club ?
Hey mat yeah Ford used the word interceptor and Chevy LM1 was motor of choice for the mods of durability but was referred to as a police interceptor motor and didn't appear till 75 Thanks for the info a good point
Just wondering why you don't fill the lifters with oil before putting them in? I just fill them up with an oil can through the side hole - makes it easier to prime the engine. Nice burp by the way LOL
Comp Cams: It is not necessary to "pre-pump" hydraulic lifters with engine oil prior to installation and valve adjustment. It is actually undesirable to do so, as the "pumped up" lifters will cause the valves to open during the adjustment process, rather than positioning the lifter plunger in its operating position as it is supposed to do.
@@user-ic1tq5uj7f Depends what type they are, mine are anti-pump up lifters that run zero lash, if I set them with 1/2 to 1 turn preload it won't run, so I need them full of oil to set them. Even normal ones don't seem to care, makes it easier to get to zero lash and then give them 1/2 a turn, they will bleed off by the time you get around to starting it. I have never had a problem doing it that way.
@@waynedavidson2691 Ok, thanks. The reason why I ask is because I'm just a few steps behind you on my " Mystery small Block" . Have you seen some of the videos?
here's a useful piece of info. any 350 with the original 8 inch balancer is a 4 bolt main. guys make alot of assumptions about how to tell a 4 bolt but the balancer is the ONLY way to tell.
@@waynedavidson2691 Ok, this should be fun. See, I think I have the same engine , only a little newer. Mine is a .030 over 350...aka 355 and I'm just trying to figure it out.
