Okay, call me dense here, but isn't that the radio speaker in the lower part of the pic. and could that be the underside of the dash sheet metal pulled up so you can see the lettering, and finally, does it say "mold clock bulbs?" The clock bulbs make sense, because you're dealing with the dashboard, ie gauges like the clock which are illuminated. But mold? Short for molding?

But wait! I also need to know if you ever found out why the pushrods have no oil passage?

And finally! I am really curious about that earlier pic of the oil pan and pistons: did you ever find the eighth piston, or was this a rare 7-cylinder model???? (That would be of much more value than an early casting date on the block.)

Just gotta know...
