Are you just doing a check? Or are you stripping it down (in situ) for a rebuild? Depending on which it is will determine what comments/suggestions you will get.....it's easy to just pull things apart! Making sure you put it all back together the CORRECT way is the tricky bit.

ah the ol push rods eh, thanks 13secmini.

the body is in its repair state now, but a candy purple paint job is on the way, for $0 Jealous?

Annnnd i pulled the head off to get it shaved, for a nice low price, found a blown head gasket, but that is as far as i will go on that baby. so i guess it was a half check half rebuild type thing? lol. Just need a few spares for my s.u and a new/old radiator, mines got a hole.
