1966 Valiant Sedan V8 Swap (Victoria)
In the drawing, I explain what happened after a 18 year sleep, she sounded and ran very good till nearly 310 miles, so it's going to get a regrind to get back into shape I hope, or get a reading on this cam to have another done, son is bringing me a valve pressure gage so I can get a read on them.. there was zero blow by, good compression (hope to get a reading on that also) and ran nice and cool at 70 and had zero problems in stop and go in town.
The other thing I wanted to test was my very low mileage trans (904 heavy stack) I had built was indeed ok, it shifted, pulled hard and never gave me a shifting problem, so it's good to go.
memike has been very busy and enjoying it, never in a hurry and checking everything as I remove parts.
Just an up date, completed my console a week ago, it works great, so ! What is that doing in my car you say, 40 dollars and die, and a little time I have a working, not shabby console.
