Interesting discovery inside 318
Ha, pretty close to what I did with the motor I posted the pic of.
When we brought this car home it had a wiped lobe on what looked like a fairly fresh top end, and a severely plugged up carburetor. (not to mention the pump check ball out of it's seat and sitting in a pit where it was doing zero good)
The block never came out of the car, but it got a 1968 340 grind cam, new lifters, new roller set, oil pump and all new lower end bearings and seals, as well as knocking all the freeze plugs out, rinsing the block out and replacing the plugs with brass.
Oh, and a new muffler for the single exhaust.:D
Oh again, along with a full cooling and heating system flush.
(Snowball) :D
It runs and drives great now, for a 2 barrel 318.
