Update on 216 rebuild. 1938 nos block. Standard bore flat top pistons with 1950 head. Head and motor were decked. Milk can lifters with 10 1/2" push rods. Nos oil pump. Langdons electronic ignition. Motor is back in truck frame. New clutch disc and throw out bearing with flywheel and pressure plate resurfaced. Threaded holes in front main bearing caps 5/16th" so can now remove timing cover without removing oil pan. Having some issue getting harmonic balancer back on crankshaft. Wondering how warm I can heat in oven without damaging balancer or timing cover seal. Used to boil tractor front pulleys in oil and then tap on. Wondering if this would hurt balancer or seal? Still have to get oil pressure gauge,muffler, fluids, timing cover, and harmonic balancer before start up. Wondering on breaking procedures for motor? Looking for radiator support or pics of (see parts wanted post).
