Its time to rebuild the engine in my 50 truck. The engine is a 54 235, it still runs good but the oil pressure is getting low and a blue snake is coming out the tail pipe when I step on the gas.I see some Stovebolters run engines with shims.But remember back, there was a discussion(heated),saying shimmmed engines are "junk".The machine shop tells me shimmed 235 engines are not a problem, he used to do a lot of them.What do you say?
