here's the plan

so i decided to pull the motor upon seeing the antifreeze/oil splooge under my valve covers and in my lifter valley. im gonna clean it up good and paint it and use dealer gaskets and such so it doesnt leak and THEN throw in the crane h-272-2 cam and pacesetter headers! it will recieve royal purple motor/trans oil and rear end oil. i cant wait, this will be one potent "little v6"

all synthetics huh? cool. it was either Horse Power TV or one of those other shows on TNN/Spike where they showed that switching to all synthetic oil netted then some rwhp gains.
