Default Re: Ford vs Chevy Build-up

With zero experience on this car Dale I'm guessing I will need to lower the engine into the bay and fasten the headers just before setting it on the mounts.

I will admit to a rookie mistake. Went to drop the distributor in last night and found one must install the oil pump drive shaft when the pump is bolted to the block lol. Yes, I had to pull the pan to do it over.

I will need to be spot on with timing initially. Driver's side fuel rail is all in the way of the distributor body and precludes much rotation. Any more issues with these things and I will consider going back to the factory rails.
