OK, less than 300 miles since my last "professional" rebuild I lost oil pressure again. I cut the filter and found that some of my bearings decided to take up residence there. This time i'll be rebuilding the engine myself, since I can't seem to find anyone good in this area. I also plan on doing a cam/intake/carb upgrade (suggestions welcome!). I'll update the thread with pics soon and share my horror story of the guy who built it (JB Weld.... thats all i'm gonna say )

For starters i've got the top end taken apart and the block is a 70's 3970010 non mexican block. I'll upload some pics shortly.

 

Sounds like a lot of probems for one engine to go through. Was it the same block every time?? Get rid of that damn aircleaner too! LOL

 

Yup, same block. I'm hoping its ok...

I haven't had that air cleaner in like 2 years, I just like how it looks.
