So still undecided which way to go, but no matter what it needs a good clean. Tapping/cleaning all holes. Using lard on the tap, cheaper then drill/tap oil and supposed to work just as good.
Date code 06/83 I think
Vin # X517595 (hard to make out)
Oil pump will be coming off for inspection. In the meantime cleaning until I hear from shop on 302 heads
I have am 1984 truck FSM. I believe I should be good to use torque specs from it for the most part? As mentioned block is an 06-83 date code I believe.
Thanks again all for advice I appreciate and believe it or not some is sinking in.
