**truckdude239** · 04-19-2008, 03:19 AM

72BlckButy · 04-19-2008, 03:38 PM

Lookin' good!

Chevyholic · 04-19-2008, 04:07 PM

Nice work! Is your rust damage underneath the battery side? I discovered a sizeable amount of rust on my rad support below the battery on my 71, as well. It's always something...

**truckdude239** · 04-20-2008, 02:43 AM

some more pictures of work today ran the old engine codes and found thats its not a 307 but a 327 out of a 67 3903352....327.....67....2bolt main which explanes the vent tube on the back of the motor had the fly wheel turned since it was burned bad

**truckdude239** · 04-20-2008, 02:44 AM
