Keeping Busy and needing input?
Well I just finished correcting a few things on my 69 Orange white stripe RS/Z28:
Carb rebuilt- check Removed aftermarket stereo cassette & installed correct AM radio with rear speaker fader- check Removed and correctly installed new carpeting-check New project removal and rebuild of engine in orange with black stripe 69 RS/Z28. I have antifreeze entering cylinder #8. The engine is ready to pull all everything is disconnected. It could be a head gasket, but two issues the engine had.... low oil pressure and somewhat of a vibration. I had the engine rebuilt by a local engine shop and it produced great HP 411 at 7100. The rub is I had normal oil pressure prior and no vibration( yes I had the flywheel & pressure plate balanced. I was considering purchasing a "modern crate " and install. Also have the original engine rebuilt and stored. Any suggestions? My one thinking has always been the 302 is really the only unique item to a Z28 which is the reason I have stayed with the 302.
