I was told it was a 356 but maybe not. The engine serial number seems to have to many letters but the first 7 seem to be correct for a 47. 356 .also i was always told that the distributor is directly under the freeze plug on a 356. I went and checked again the lifter are adjustable but maybe when it was rebuilt someone put those in instead of hydraulic lifters

what should valve clearance be on a 1947 356 cold. My motor Manuel says .002-.003 intake and .004-.005 exhaust it dosent seem like enough to me. Just thinking of other engines that are usually around .017-.019 cold.

I have been working on a 1947 356 engine. It was supposed to be rebuilt years ago then it sat for 20 years. I noticed the tube that comes off the intake is blocked off. If i remember correctly it should not be blocked off. Please let me know which way is correct.

My transmission was rebuilt by a well known Packard transmission guy. Sometimes the car will not back up. Sometimes it seems like its in neutral. Other times when you try to backup its like there is something binding up in the trans when you start to leave the clutch out the engine will start to loose rpms but the car will not move back unless you go forward first. What would cause this?
