It's been a long time since I've posted anything here. (My '74 has been in mothballs for many years, waiting for my retirement).
I was at an estate sale a couple of weeks ago where I purchased a '73 2.0 motor that was mounted on an engine stand. It looks to be a rebuild project. The heads look newly reworked. No rockers, tubes, or pushrods have been installed. (These parts were also included (new) along with most all required tin, fan, shroud and fuel injection.) #GA008920 The reason for this post: The oil galley plugs appear to have been soldered over then coated with JB weld. I've chipped the JB weld off some of them, only to be surprised by the solder. Has anyone seen this done? Any ideas on how to proceed? FYI - I pulled a head to determine bore & stroke. It appears to be stock. Heads have been gone through and look like they were done well (just from visual inspection) They have new valves, springs, & guides and were bead blasted. thanks  Attached thumbnail(s)
