Melling came.

This is my thought .since i have not looked at packard pump or rear main.

But no stuck lifters lately.

Marks on melling where to cut and drill and tap for 5/16ths bolt.

Thanks h.

When the rain lets up will lube.

I think i took power from window relay on fire wall. I believe i am using that circuit breaker for wiper motor too.

Back then my thinking was i wanted them to work without key.

After 20 plus years. Forgot which way was on or off..

Know now. Cw on. Cc off.

Thanks h...

Ps..i have alot hooked. Up to ballast. I should put terminal strip in..

I am using the old delta cd..ign.

At some point need to test out my unalite set up..

Thanks h.

Update.

Open door to get mail today. Heard a noise. Looked at pack.the wipers were working under car cover.

I didn't turn back switch. And at some point contact was made.

I took a video. But it's not on utube. The battery was down.

After charging for a few hours went down. Found windshield leak ..gasket cracked at top trim piece retainer so will fill that with silicone. When dry.

Caught in the rain with pack. Found windshield has leak. And chevy wiper motor does not work. Using packard wiper switch. Have not used it in over 20 years..

After changing oil no clacking yet no high speed driving yet. Dropped trans pan. To change the cork gasket that was leaking.

Found a bolt in pan. Wtf...it was from reverse brake. All those bolts were loose. So lock tight this time. 9 ft lbs seems low to me. But that case is aluminum.

Thanks dave ..yes i have..

Ok..still lifter problem..so i am at the point..IT'S THE PUMP.

I did see bubbles on dip stick.. So the melling. Is in the works. Which i will hate pulling pan.

Going to make my own adapter. Cause looking at melling flange . i might change how its bolted on. When i get a pump i will know.

My problem has been discussed over and over. It happens at high speed. Racing engine i sometimes get it free.. Changed all to jb 789..

Motorcycle s use needle bearing for both pin and crank.

But my thought was to reduce Machining. Pressing in bronze then boring and reaming. Think pac pin is .908.. So to get 080 a 3/4 ..75. Or .800 pin.
