jmooner3 Posted November 30, 2009 Report Posted November 30, 2009 Thanks guys, I'd like to make the one I got go...kinda made it personal when my boy and I took out the "big" hammer! If I can't get compression I'll look up the guy in NH. Not a far drive at all from here! Did I say I love this forum!!! Quote
jmooner3 Posted November 30, 2009 Report Posted November 30, 2009 out of curiosity, I called skip in NH. The parts are all still available it's a three speed column trans looks in good condition, states that the engine is not seized. It does not have a head on it and it has been sitting in the back of a truck...? For $150 bucks I'll take my chances on the pitted cylinder I have now with a head instead of the headless unknown...Regardless - Thanks for the lead! Quote
JoelOkie Posted December 1, 2009 Report Posted December 1, 2009 Well Jay, at least you know you have some options there. Be interesting if that head is off to look down the cylinders. I guess a guy could crank it around and get good measurments about how much wear and taper they have. Another plus would be getting an engine with the truck setup (front sump) oilpan, thus eliminating forever that issue. The price sure sounds right. If you are staying with the other, hope that goes well for you too. Joel Quote
