Family Fish on its 3rd life: 1967 F/B Resto

This was a good week for the engine. I removed the timing set and installed the tensioner. I degreased the intake, waterpump and timing cover. Everything on the intake was originally put in with teflon tape, which I think looks sloppy. I removed fittings and replaced the tape with thread sealant.

Oil pump was R&R to change the pickup from truck to car. I was going to replace the pump but it looks like someone already put in the high volume pump.

I removed the stickers from the oil pan and sanded it down. The lip required some minor hammer and dolly work to get it to flush with the surface of the block.

All machined surfaces were hit with a surface conditioning pad so everything is ready for the fel-pro / sealed power full engine gasket set.
