Got a friend who could stop by today. Helped me pull the hood off. Then I pulled the 6 banger. A little cleanup and the 421 will be going in.

Went and saw a man about some car parts. Now I have to find information on how to rehab them.

Not today, but spent most of last weekend checking valve clearances of the '26. It does have adjustable tappets, but what a nasty job. Access is terrible on flathead inline engines, with the manifolds pretty much blocking the view (and fingers) through the narrow access hole. I had thought I might explain the noisy valvetrain, but none were more than a couple thou loose. So it's still noisy.

I had a clock for one of my 66's sitting on a shelf. Took it off, cleaned it with brake clean, filed the points and about 36 hours later it's still keeping time. I'm curious how long it will run....

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
