Low oil volume
It is definitely not a push rod oiled motor. I have plenty of those to work on! Lol.
Looks like I will need to pull the rocker shafts and check them for blockage, and spin the motor to see how much oil is getting up to the rocker shafts.
I am just not looking forward to pulling the motor if the cam bearing is put of position. If I pull it, I will likely just go ahead and get a 318 long block to put in.
Unfortunately I already have several other "major" projects that need done first. (Houses and cars) I was hoping this would be a "quickie" and I would have something to play with now.
Race season starts in 2 weeks, which is my "day" job, so my next break to play with my toys won't be til June.
