That's neat. Looks like they took one of my blocks. I sure like the chrome injector lines.

Does anyone know where the oil pickup is for these engines (front, middle, rear of oil pan)? I am wondering if parking the car nose down nose up on a slight incline like a driveway would be better, worse, maybe not affect the startup oiling issue? Is the issue really an issue if 5w 40 syn and warm up times are allotted? Does it mater how we park these old oil burners?

I would definitely keep engine oil levels at the Maximum mark or even slightly overfilled. Parking rear wheels on some bumps (curb?) might `help` the oil pump, maybe, but I`m not sure it would be a big difference. Might be

Oil pump is in the very front and the oil pickup is the very rear. Parked on an incline with the nose pointed downhill should help with oil pickup if there is a problem with drain back or a loss of prime.

Good to know, I was just curious if there were any tips to possibly help the poor design for startup oiling. My driveway has a little slope so I guess i could back it it and it may help but surely look cool..

Yea I put mine nose down and it helps. I would say it 1/3 the time to get oil pressure

Very cool pictures. I also like the running IP cutaway link!

I never knew there were spaces between the cylinder sleeves. Any purpose to them? Or that's just the space left once the sleeves are pressed in?
