Ye Ole 360

["lumina333" <lumina3@xxxx>]

I think a couple of you guys have the wrong idea about the 360 engine 
that I acquired for my Grem. It is a junker...I bought it knowing 
that it needed rebuilding. It probably sat up for years in that 
Matador before someone around here decided to clean out their back 
yard. The engine was not only covered with leaves, acorns, & twigs, 
but animal bones were also found on top of it when I got it. I only 
wanted a buildable block, not a running engine, so I am not planning 
on using the rocker arms, rods, pistons, valve springs, etc. They 
will all be replaced. My main concern is that it is locked up. 
Probably a blown head gasket is my guess, I hope nothing worse. 
Tonight I will remove the rocker arms & pushrods and see if I can get 
the crankshaft to turn. Wish me luck! -Lu-
