Change oil pump while replacing pan gasket
Got the job done today, about 3 hours start to finish. Pretty easy in a truck. Put a pump in it as well. I thought it may have been a roller cam, but nope. Good ole FT. Inside the motor is nice and clean for an 87 that had not been apart besides a timing chain. primed it up before starting and picked up pressure immediately and was higher at idle than before. Shoot, just might get another 140000 out of this old girl.
