This is the third vehicle this engine has been in since the early 80's. (72 Lemans, 73 Monte, My truck)

Front oil seal on the timing cover, and temp sensor(still working on it).

I cleaned and revealed my cowl today. There is no rust on this truck and sure don't want it to start.

327 swap

Hi everyone, I'm new to the site. I just recently bought a 1979 Chevy Custom Deluxe pickup. It has the 250 I6 engine with an auto tranny. I have a 327 V8 I'd like to put in it and bolt to the auto tranny. The 327 has the old cast iron heads and intake. What can I do I have to do to have the power steering pump to be able to work with this engine? What other problems will I run into?
