while the oil pans off.....
Have to put a new oil pan on so why I have it ripped off is there anything else I should do?
Ordered a new oil pump. Stock 327 as far as I know it has never been rebuilt. I have had it 10 years.

Re: while the oil pans off.....
I would do the timing chain and take a good look to see if the freeze plugs are rotting out in the block too.

I think I'd pop in some new bearings and seals too as they don't cost much.

Re: while the oil pans off.....
roll in a set of rods and mains.....rear main seal and i would seriously consider pulling the front cover and do a new timing chain (unless it has a roller type chain in it)

Re: while the oil pans off.....
Rod bearings. Main bearings. Rear main seal. Front timing cover seal and balancer sleeve. Timing chain and gears. Oil pan gasket with the bolt pressure spreaders. Drill and tap crank snout for balancer retention bolt and washer (probably have to pull radiator for this job). Oil pump and R&R pickup and screen. Its all doable from underneath. This much work, you best validate the motor is worth it with a compression test, wet and dry. If both are good, tear into it. If not, time for rings and/or valves so do the entire motor.

Re: while the oil pans off.....
Blue smoke on start up sounds like valve seals need to be done.

Re: while the oil pans off.....
About the best plan I have heard yet. All these years I have owned it has never been down for more then a day. Now it's been like 5 months.....miss that exhaust sound.
