Progress- just a bit

Was at CarQuest yesterday and found an oil pressure kit for 14 bucks. It included 6 feet of 1/8th inch OD copper tube.

Just the thing for vacume advance, and would also work for oil pressure line if needed. Even the unions in the package fit the engine and such.

Think the engine is now ready to go in when the time comes.

Still need a generator rebuild and a fuel pump rebuild and the return of my carbs but no big thing, at least I have all the items in hand or know where they are.

Oh yea I did torque the head and rocker arm bolts. Hehe, I know some of you were worried I would forget. Could happen. In fact I even put about half a quart of oil in the engine to kind of keep the inside smelly.
 
Jack - do you want me to ship your BO's?
 
Great Jack. It is a good idea to get the rockers wet. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbsup.gif
