Thanks for the info. I got it pulled an hour or so after my post. I just wanted to ask questions before to make sure I wasn't messing anything up. I am not an engine guy at all, but I appreciate the tip on right tighty lefty loosey. lol
I got all the misc. parts blasted and shot a coat of etching primer on them this morning. The motor is back together minus wiring harness and I was pleased to see that it was spotless. I think I got a good motor.
My wife helped me the entire weekend with scrubbing the block and getting all the parts back to looking new again.
My next step is to find a good cam to swap in, change the plugs, send off the harness and install motor mounts and new oil pan and she should be ready to go. I am now on the hunt for a T56 and then I will have my powerplant ready to go. Still a ways off with the car. The front sheetmetal needs to be aligned, blown back apart,painted and reassembly. Hopefully this time next year I will be finished with the car.
