the things you find ........

So we pulled the 350 out of the 49 truck today. Wasnt too bad of a task. The trucks low stance caused a little bit of back and forth with jacks but we got it popped out.

I removed the exhaust manifolds to help with the extraction when we noticed a bright color coming from inside the head.


I think she'd been runnin a lil lean.

 

wow

 

I forgot to mention why I pulled the motor.

The rest of the bump stick is still inside.

 

Ouch, no wonder it broke. E-Gads it's one of those Frams

 

Damn!

That cam looks like it can be reused! lolololol I love that valve!

 

It was the whole driverside bank. LoL

 

Valves are clean Is that the motorcycle mad man I met at Showmes?

 

that's Gay Ray (he's not Gay it just ryhmes)

 

Just weld it back together!

 

Don't weld it !!! The heat will warp it and then it won't be any good !

 

JB Weld uses no heat.

 

I think it's fit the S-10 2.5 now.

It would make a good back scratcher!

Stick a pin in it and go....

 

I had a cam break on me in a small block chev once. It broke into 4 pieces and the two loose chunks fell into the crank in rods. Needless to say it wasn't a rebuilder anymore. It chucked a rod through the block into the starter and broke the starter off the block.
I was cruising at 55 and hit a water puddle at the time it blew. Never figured out why it happened, it just did.....

 

Hard water?

 

water pressure does amazing things
