Been wondering about the engine status…. I’ll watch the video now.

Not good.

That crank is worn out, that’s some massive oil clearance. You could have it reground but it may be cheaper or approx the same price to get a new crank. Check out DPR for cranks. If you are getting a different crank, a counter weight crank would be a wise choice. Then you might as well go with a mild stroke crank and get some more cc’s and low end power. Good video, can’t wait to see the progress.

You are right. I can go crazy with the engine but, it’s meant to be a backup and cheaper is the way to go. I may add a C25 cam.

Heard those brass gears for the distributor driveshafts are unobtainium. Looks like a piece of something got loose over those gears and mashed them a little. Re the crank probably best to get a counterweighted unit. Demello or DPR in Ca is a good source for them. Scat is good as well. This is also a great time to consider a nice cam and lifters too. No need to go crazy but get a little more oomph.
