Can someone help me with the correct amount of engine oil for a 72 LA 318? Google seems to be confused on the subject,lol. I put in about 5.25 quarts or 5 litres . I don’t know if I have the correct dipstick as there are some homemade marks etc. it’s reading high on the dipstick, should I take...

No smoke at all

Ya your right, I had a closer look at them , they have some cool factor

The sticker on the air cleaner says 1972

Unfortunately I don’t know the history of the engine but it starts good, runs like a top and doesn’t appear to be using any oil???

It’s a difficult decision for someone to restore a car like that based on cost to do ot and end value result.

Currently my 65 with the LA 318 2 bbl, I am getting 12mpg on the highway at 55mph, should I be getting better mileage than that?

My 65 with the 72 LA 318 engine is getting about 12 mpg on the highway at 55 mph, do you think should be getting better mileage?

Woah Loadrunner, I am not ready for the rocking chair just yet! I ain’t driving around in no granny car, I have a rep to protect lol

Yes, with all the advice on here , probably not a road worth going down. It was an expensive fill up today, probably keep the 2bbl 318 for now, lol

Can you help me identify the mounts And if they will work for the 413 engine? First is pass side

The guys parents parked the car in a garage in 1985 in running condition, apparently turns over by hand, oil is clean in it. Buddy lost the keys and not sure when it last ran. 4b carb single exhaust. Imperial car . Barn find condition???

What is the right price, goes with the car at 68,000 original miles

68,000 miles still in the car , what is a good price??

As far as driving, I don’t do much over the speed limit, 0-60 kinda driving highway cruising There is a LA engine in my car now and the mounts look like they have been fabricated a bit. Would the original poly mounts work on the 413?
