Today I recondition push rod tubs to remove dents and reduce diameter for clears to stub pipes

tightest clearance is #1 and #4 exhaust to stub and then 2/3 to exhaust

I may have to try to fit an aftermarket thermostat. The header is too close for the stock on to fit. I hate the new one fails in the on position though!

Yeah getting close. about time to remove the OE engine and test the oil prime and final valve lash.

Good eye. Not wanting to pull the alternator/cover I have been putting this off. I decided now with your comment, to pull the terminals our of the connector and install a seal/bushing. It was not as painful as it sounds with a terminal too. Seal from Hot air and no chances of cutting or grounding my charging system.

This week starts the removal of the OE and trans. wit the Lift plate from Tangerine and fast jacks this will go quick. Done wit the test runs of my make shift engine oil primming system. With a regulator I can control the oil pressure and feed rate,. Negative: If I run the tool empty I get oil foam and air. SO small batches of prime 30 weight break in oil.Attached Image

Add a PMO fuel regulator (purchased in the classified here) I made a mount to the case and insulated with silicone 1/8 washers (think GM HEI button) so heat should not be much more that engine compartment ambient temps. COOL recirculating fuel! Woo hoo. SS lines to the carbs carbs and once I'm up and running will look at the Tangerine SS tunnel lines
Waiting on some 6an to 8mm fuel parts..later today

Cheers

Lets see how I did...

I add 5 gals of 93 octane to the tank after draining it with the stock fuel pump. this worked great wit the ground wire on the relay to run the pump when the key is one.(carbs)

Topped of the oil to full 4 qt with tuna can

Key on and checked new plumbing for NO leaks and 3 psi

SO FAR SO GOOD

Lets see if it will light off

2 pumps on the accelerator to prime pumps and got shots of fuel

KEY on and Contact....crank..crank crank...no fire

again Crank crank crank crank..no fire

pump pump crank crank crank...she is not going to go!

A quick check I found NO SPARK for my Malory

SO...

I think I spiked the module doing power balance test by pulling plug wires last time it was running.
I had a no start and then it cooled and ran again..no nothing

I hooked up a 009 points distributor and a ground wire...

Gave it a spin...and ZAP, ZAP, ZAP!

Pulled the Mallory and borrowed the 123 from the Djet

Dropped it in without changing the last clamp position (ran at that setting)added the power connections and plug wires etc..

Pull the coil wire and add the stark tester

Key on"Crank crank crank = ZAP ZAP ZAP

HERE WE GO AGAIN:

2 squirts on the accelerator

Crank, cra.... VAROOM!

up to 2,000 PRM and synced the low Slave carb.... 15 Cam burn just to keep the oil pumping

60 psi

running good for 5 mins
set base timing to 10 degrees and continued the BURN for total of 15 min

Idle at 1000 and oil at 20 psi (HOT) well pretty warm

AFR 12.1 at 2K rpm may be a little rich but Looking good

Head temp at 300-340
Will tune a little more Sunday and swap out the start up oil and reset the valve lash to about .001

HERE is the proof: I did set the valve lash a little loose @ .003 so a little noisy

Sounds healthy!
Pretty balanced for a first start as well.

I'm a huge believer in running it under load (driving) for the first couple of hours.

Medium acceleration but using compression braking whenever possible.

Trying to achieve the highest manifold vacuum I can (engine decel).

I'd want to drive it this afternoon!

I'm happy for you and a bit envious...

My 2055 is a few months away.

You might need those smaller idle jets you have!

For no load 2K I'd want to hit north of 13.5 and south of 14.5

I add a new Malory Module to my ignition system Hi fire and I have to say ...AWESOME
Dropped it right in at my OLD setting. One tap on the accelerator COLD START...Vroooooom

NO long crank or stumble. Great idle too.

Getting Better...

YES I will get the base timing set (10-12*)and limit the advance to a bout 16 degrees shooting for the DESIRED 28 total

It should be cool this weekend. 75 in the morning, so I l drive around on the idle Circuit and gets som Wide band numbers

On a first run in like you just did I clean the piss out of my drain pan, drain oil into it.

Let it sit for hours, poor the top 95% off and "pan for gold" with the remains.

Shine a flashlight through it....

Any bad glitter and I'm pulling it back out...

It's so much cheaper to fix if you catch badness early.

I wouldn't do an oil analysis until after I had 10K on the new motor.
