Just wanting to know how to tell if the bellows are good or not? Is there a length it should be at room temp? I assume its fine, it was my dd for years w no problems to speak of. The engine will be going back in the car in a few weeks and its something I don't really want to spend more money on but I want to be right. So what do you guys think?

Why bother with a 40 year old car that will fail?
