Re: My new project 86 Silverado

I should do a poll to see which one, the Olds or Pontiac gets installed...

Re: My new project 86 Silverado
I'm biased, so I vote Olds! Also its been done several times. Not sure how well the Poncho fits? (mounts and exhaust?) Either way looks like fun!

Re: My new project 86 Silverado
after checking over my engine, the builder did not know a few Oldsmobile specific things... in the left rear of the engine, there is a 29/32" plug for the oil galley, behind that plug is the actual oil galley threaded pipe plug, well for the Olds engines, that galley pipe plug is supposed to have a .040 hole in it to oil the distributor gear...
so i have to pop that 29/32 freeze plug out and replace the galley pipe plug with the right one with the .040 hole in it... i already have them to replace, but is a bummer... delays delays grrrrrr ![]()
