Yep its the original engine and the trucks only got 77,xxx on it. Thats not really that important, we just want to drive our shiny old truck!
I figure I could get te 216 redone and reinstalled for 3 grand. It runs well -sometimes-, gets full compression, and has a brand new cylinder head on it. We just cannot figure out what makes it run funny sometimes (runs rich, spits and sputters)
Weve had 3 carbs, 3 fuel pumps, 2 distributors, new fuel lines, advance, 2 cylinder heads, im sure there's more too, and its just not right.
