OT'S 47-51 ??? Rebuild ??
gror:
I never had room in mine for even a short oil filter.
the old trucker:
Did you use the adapter like Swamp Dawg did ?? If so, where did you get it to ?? How much ?? Part #'s ?? Was told by my "buddy mechanic " the motor should be out by day's end if the weather holds up.

Hey boys is that all is up around your way is rusty old fords ?
What about a 292 chevy ? Thanks Gror for the pics. There great!!!
Keep taking a scattered pic once in awhile. Don't wait till the end.
My ol' ticker may not be able to take the pressure of waiting.
That's a quote from Gror's rebuild that I put there. Guess I have to eat my words if I put this engine in my bomber. HA HA HA !!!! ;D :o ::)
OT. :-[
the old trucker:
Gror or Swamp Dawg, is the dist. vacuum line on your distributor in the same place as on mine ?? There is a long oil filter on mine now. If you say I don't have the space for a short filter, it looks like I'd have to change the position of the dist.
I have another motor mount bolt & a couple more on the trans & out she comes, if the rain ever stops !!

Did you say that the green wire goes with that blue one with the yellow stripe ?? Or is the brown supposed to go with the ahhh............ purple....or black ?? I don't remember. We worked a little backwards with the wiring because we never had any schematics to go by. It was a bit of snip, start, stop, snip & start again for awhile but we got er' done !! Now when we put her on the ground all we have to do is hook up 2 ground & a hot wire to a battery & turn the key.
Any ideas on a good engine cleaner ?? Well gotta go my mechanic is out waiting. Looks like the rain is finally starting to cooperate.

My oil bypass system was built by a machinest at work for me but you can buy them out of Jeggs. I put a different distrutor in mine "old school points and condensor".
