re-using parts????
Just purchased a c10 that has been sitting for years. Was running fine when last driven, purchased from a family friend.
Truck has 48, 000 original miles on original small block. Im gonna pull the motor, paint the engine compartment, but I am a novice as far as what parts I should consider still using and what I should 100% replace. Radiator?? Distributor?? Can I replace just cap/rotor? Or best suited to get a new hei? Waterpump? Cheap part so I thought good to replace it and the thermostat.which temperature thermostat would I want for a stock motor? Manifolds look fine, just gotta plug the holes where the smog stuff used to go . Intake im guessing most likely ok Stock 2 barrel? Any other gaskets that I for sure shoud change out besides oil pan and valve cover gaskets? Figure ill have it out the next few days so im formulating the parts list of what I need.that way I can change the items out and drop it back in Posted via Mobile Device |
