I was given an engine SN 3921968 Chevrolet/Oldsmobile (64-72), 230/250. It came with a 3 speed manual trans.
I have a 1954 Chevy 3100 with original engine/trans and torque tube. End goal is swapping the original engine/trans for the one tat was given to me. I understand that I will need a new rear end and update the electrical to 12V for the alternator but I have a few questions for the experts out there. I don't plan on doing a full rebuild on it... although I guess it depends on what it looks like once I get it apart. I was told it ran like a sewing machine when it was pulled....
1. What is the best kit for gaskets to make sure it is sealed correctly?
2. What do you recommend for cam and lifters? Does anyone have any for sale?
3. Any tips for a newbie before I get started ?
I appreciate any input or recommendations y'all might have
