Just another 65 Barracuda build.....
Progress. The 65 is almost a shell now. We're starting in on removing the "old" stuff we won't be using.
Here is the 273 Autopsy we preformed. Looks like the cause of death was lack of lubrication by a failure of the oil pump and/or drive shaft. Seems the bottm 1" with flats the goes into the ID of the pump sheared off. First time I ever saw that. Looks to me the PO ignored the oil press light and kept driving - - notice the scorching of the 3/4 and 5/6 rod journals!
also shown the underside of the hood and lift springs.
