My 48 is parked for an overhaul and new clutch. I have a 51 rolling chassis with a 216 and I started to get it ready to start and see if it runs. I took the battery and some of the other parts off of the 48 and got the 51 216 to turn over so I could check the compression. I got 3 of them done before the starter quit working. I am encouraged and hope I can use this engine while I work on one of my 235's. I may just fix the clutch and keep driving my tired engine, because I miss my truck.
