Swappin 318's
Since it is out on a stand why not put in some fresh bearings and rings?
A good engine doesn't cost much to freshen up. Cam and lifters $100.00,gaskets $50.00, oil pump $30.00, rings and bearings $75.00. Water pump $25.00. New fuel pump $25.00.
If you see my point? You can get away with a rebuild for under $500.00!..then you know you are good to go! :thumblef:
