so, i'm almost ready to start my 1957 235 . the enging was rebuilt and bench ran about three months ago. nothing on the engine has been changed since then.
is there any procedure for first start i should follow?
i did this once before with a friend on a 383 dodge. he had a this octagnal rod attached to a drill. he removed the distrubutor and valve cover and inserted the rod in the oil pump and turned it untill oil was to the top of the motor. is this something i should be doing? if so, is it the same type rod? clockwise or counter?
any info is helpful.
thanks.
