Hey guys, I may have a real problem. I started the engine today it runs great, no noises, good oil pressure, and runs on all cyl.'s.
I can't tune it yet as the radiator isn't installed so I can only run the engine for 30-45 seconds then shut her down for an hour or so.
Here is my problem the other engine was wrong for the truck (235) it had an ignition switch activated starter. The 216 I installed has a stomp starter. When installing the floor board I am having difficulty lining the stomp start hole with the stomp start rod. The rod sits to the extreme left of the hole and rubs, it also looks as if the stomp mech. is going to hit the floor pan when bolted down.
The engine and bell housing came out of a CAR, is the bell housing for a car different than a truck or is it just the stomp mech.? I hope just the stomp mech. needs replacement.
