261 Round two! After rebuilding a near factory new 261 for my '59, I had an oil pump failure that cause a bearing spin. Result, out comes my new but damaged engine... (crank damage on #2 Connecting Rod). eek
I had the Crank reworked, put in new Main, Rod and even Cam Bearings and replaced the problematic Oil Pump.
With recommendations from some great Stovebolters, I hooked up a set of gauges to monitor the engine running on the Dolly.
Everything's good to go! I hope to have it installed soon.
