Okay, have a lot of sorting out to do, but here's before and after engine pics: http://picasaweb.google.com/bruce.griffis/RamblerEngineBeforeAndAfter# I ordered engine paint for a '65 196OHV, Lancelot Turquoise. It doesn't look like my block, but looks pretty okay. Don't know how long the paint needs to cure before it hardens, right now it scratches very easily! The kid in the engine compartment is my middle son. He's helped out quite a bit. The other kid hanging over the fender has been there every step of the way - through freeing up the engine, doing a tuning, rebuilding the brakes, replacing parts, pulling the head, putting the head, head gasket, intake manifold gasket back on - putting the rocker arm assemly on and helping adjust valve lash (we'll revisit that with the notes you guys provided). I wish he didn't have to work Saturday, he really should be at the Southeast Regionals. He's done a ton of work. _______________________________________________ Amc-list mailing list Amc-list@xxxxxxxxxxxx http://splatter.wps.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/amc-list
