my engine swap

You go girl!!

Just try to keep a few wheels on the ground! :)

i will stovens. :3dSMILE:

yea the rear ones

yes charlie i can hardly wait.

Barb you just kind to go into it with the right attitude…….that at least the first pair of rear tires are kind of sacrificial. :3dSMILE:

Barb,go look for a pair of old tires that have been sitting around for a year or two..Stick those suckers on,cos they will be nice and hard..and will go up in smoke real good...Yee haaa.:cool::cool:**)**)

got a local guy that says that he will keep me in rear tires slightly used for $30.00 each. mounted and balanced. so i am good to go. just have to do the exhaust.

So have we riped up any tires yet????

These women are such teases !!!!!!!!:D:D

no not yet. had a small leak in the back of my power steering pump that i tried to patch with the jb weld stick. when i put the pump back on the block and moved it to tighten the belt the whole pump in the back split. so not i am on hold again until i can find one i can afford that has pullies on it. i hate changing pullies. but on a good note the radiator is fix and last night i traveled outside my safe zone for the first time in 6 years and had a great evening with my friends and family.

okay guys i need some info. ran the engine for about 10 minutes yesterday. my temp gauge went to 180 rather quickly but did not go above that. what i need to know is what tempature should it be running at. also what oil pressure should i be showing?

180 is good and up to 210 is acceptable on these. For oil I like to see a minuimum if 15 PSI at a slow hot idle and you will probably see 40-50 PSI at 2500 rpm.

thanks mike

When you say "rather quickly" Barb, how quickly? Did you change the thermostat? Looks like you are getting some time put on that engine, very good.:)
