Ready to move on to the flywheel, clutch and transmission.
Tin motor mount cover powder coated with chrome color powder.
In preparation for this, I smashed down an end off a steel rod so that it would fit into the oil pump. (This being after removing the distributor.)
With the cordless drill, I am able to turn the oil pump and get oil flowing through the motor with out having to crank it. This taking place every day for about a week before attempting to start the motor for the first time.
Also to help things along and to get the best reading possible, I picked up an temporary gauge set from the parts store and hooked them up for the first run.
