The engine and engine compartment had a lot of oil residue, mainly from leaky valve covers. So far the pan gasket and the rear main is not leaking. Once I button up everything I’ll give it another wash.

Much to my relief it appears the motor is a reman.the previous owner told me it had a motor replaced about a year ago. When I popped the intake I found that the lifter valley extremely clean and it appears to bea later model 318 in that it has the bosses for roller lifter spider retainers.

I checked the brakes when I put the wheels on and they are good. Just is out on that MC. The fluid really needs flushing

An AC system is in the plans for this fall. Im also pondering a GenIII conversion.
