Quite similar looking to the Oldsmobile engines of the day with a big block Chrysler oil pump.

I once packed a 308 oil pump with Vaseline with a fresh rebuild…. 20 seconds after start up I’m holding it at 2 1/2 RPM to break the cam in and the Vaseline plugged the oil filter and blew it off the motor….. Huge mess…. These days I see in the USA they prime the motor with an old dizzy shaft and a cordless drill…. Wish I had of known that back in 1989……

Great video. Can I ask what company and volume type is the oil pump???? Have enjoyed this four part engine build.

[@bobaltamont]

Great videos, but hold the phone on the side bro! Use the whole frame, cheers.

[@andrewfava3056]

G'day, great video, very informative. Just wondering what type of grease you used when you were packing the gears on the oil pump?

Is there any way of removing the heater hoses completely? They're making my engine bay look shit

[@barryscarlett462]

How about a v6 rebuild

[@bigal878]

What size cam did you put in this engine? Thanks

[@alanaterzian8044]

Whats sealant are you using on on all your gaskets etc ?

[@adzz8012]

Nice build 👌

seriously painting the outside of rocker covers but leaving them clearly rusted on the inside and installing them and calling that good.
