Figured out the trans needle bearings, and got it all back together. I hope it works right.
My freeze plug for that hole in the back of the block by the distributor is too small so I’ll have to special order another size or three.
Paid $140 to rent a 54 piece installer remover set and it doesn’t have an adapter near the size for my crank. Going to take it back and go to Harbor freight. New dampener is in though and ready to install
Did get the little timing tab in the mail.
Slow going over here
I bought that dampener remover/installer kit. I am shocked there isn't something in there that would work on the crank of your engine. You'd think a comprehensive kit like would cover everything. I guess GM used an oddball size dampener bolt back then. Simple things like that, that trip up a project, drive me nuts.
Glad you got the transmission figured out and back together. Just put in 90w mineral oil from Napa. Can get it by the gallon. May be able find it at a tractor store too.
