If the pushrods are the same lengths, they will interchange. Heads will
probably interchange if all the holes line up; rockers likewise. I remove
the engine separately from the trans; then the trans if necessary. .bill in

Subject: RE: [old-chevy-truck] oil pan

 

Well, the bad news is that when I filled the oil and connected a drill to
the oil pump, it began throwing oil from somewhere in the vicinity of the
flywheel.  This engine is OPJ ( officially pronounced junk and will receive
no further attention other than its removal and dismantling.  I will go with
the better of two '54 engines sitting in the garage sans heads.  One is
pretty oily and the other I can still see the blue.  But someone put the
wrong harmonic balancer on it and may have messed up the crank.  

 

Will my pushrods interchange?  or the head and rockers?  Is there a
procedure?  A timeline of procedures involved in a major overhaul?  A
recommended series of dismantling and renovation?  Oddly enough I don't feel
pissed as I properly should, though the prospect of transmission, engine
removal replacement is not an attractive one.
