Balancer removed and Seal pulled Holes drilled for the new Mount - right now these are just clearance for 7/16" bolts Water Pump removed (it was not leaking but going to install a new one) Contacted "pre '68 Dave" and ordered a WP Adapter plate (he was extremely responsive - Thank you Dave!) Ordered new Stainless hardware for the pump plate, New Pump, Drill/Tap set plus a Bottom Tap, Front Seal, Repair Sleeve for Balancer, Engine Mount and Clutch (The Clutch was OK on the 216, but for the amazing price of $87 on a full kit from Rock Auto, it just makes sense to put a new one in) Generator, Starter, Transmission, Clutch, Flywheel and Bellhousing all pulled in prep for swap of the 216 components after that engine gets pulled.
