Re: SoCal checkin' in
Thanks vdog looks like the first is prob right.I always say 75 350 so I guess I was right with the info I was given. I got the tranny from the olds in ,driveshaft mounted, just have a few things to finish off and keep my fingers crossed that its a good tranny. I'll finish it up in the morning. I'm pretty beat!

How many teeth are on the starter's Bendix ? .
Once in a while you'll get an odd tooth count and this causes jamming & binding . Dano , you said oil droplets all over the back of the cab , that's not likely rings as rings woud spew oil & smoke out the exhaust pipe , not from under the cab.... I'm just thinking out loud here , maybe you blew a rear main seal or oil filter plate seal ? .

Engine
Quote:
I did have a gigantic gray/blue cloud exhaust as I was comin' down Kellogg Hill (I-10). I went out this morning and there's no leaking oil from the rear of the engine or the oil filter seal. Since my "cheap b@st@rd homemade brand" exhaust system ends at the back of the cab, that's the reason everything was cab and bed. The droplets were vaporlike drops, so I'm pretty sure I was blowin' oil out the exhaust pipes. Dano

O.K. , now I gotcha .
You seem in a big hurry to yank this engine , it's always easier and faster to yank heads & drop the pan , repair as necessary , this is how GM esigned it , to be simple , cheap and fast .

Dano has been having trouble with this engine since the first Legends meet when he was not sure if it was going to start or not. He is probably fed up with it. I know that feeling well. |

I usually pull the PO motor when I buy a truck, but cash got tight. I'd like to remove the curse, start fresh, and have confidence in my power plant. I'm glad I have an engine waiting on deck...

Re: SoCal checkin' in
I had an old v-8 that when I took a starter that had straight across mounting holes. Everytime I would go to the auto parts store they would tell me that the starter for a v8 with a th350 needed to have the offset mounting holes. I would tell them, that is not what is on there now. One parts clerk did not believe me and told me to bring my old starter in. When I did, he confirmed it was not for a manual tranny set-up and as a matter of fact he could not even find the starter in his picture parts book. He sent me to an old skool starter rebuild place and when the old-timer there saw the starter he said, that's an old-one! (whatever that meant.) He went in the back and came out with a rebuilt starter for me, took my old one as the core. I will take a look in my stash and see if I can find that starter and maybe get a part number or pic of it for you. Maybe your v8 needs one of these types of starter.

Re: SoCal checkin' in
"hopped up",
I found the starter (on my dad's old car). Would you like to try it to see if it will work on your engine? I do need it back, but you can at least see if this is the type of starter you need. Dano
