Haven't pulled the rocker gear off. I'll do that tonight or tomorrow and pull the heads. That would be so cool if I could get this puppy running.

New question. How do you tell what stall a torque converter is? Is there a machine that tests this? it came with a nice looking converter but it is bare metal and looks like it's been worked by the welds between the case and the flywheel. It has a little stamp on it and this is the only defining mark other than what appears to be a timing mark.
