I bought a set of used aluminum L-82 valve covers for a 77 Vet I had at one time. The one valve cover had galling in 8 spots that would have caused aluminum fragments but I have no idea what was the problem that caused the gaulling
You could use this motor with some ambition. As above ideas stated, it would have to totally be disasembled and the block boiled cuz the oil gallery's in that block would be like that filter. Its posible to do if you like the car. By inspectging everything you would find the culprit. I wonder...
I don't have a smartphone but in 2 weeks the car will be back in my posession and I could send pics to your phone from my flip phone. The car is black. I can't remember if Newport or New Yorker but 413 is why I bought the car
Here's the story. It's a Newport or New Yorker, been crashed, I'm pulling the 413 and trani, then the rest is up for grabs for 200 bucks. I'll add more details as far as what it is and what got wrecked soon. West central Minnesota
