I broke apart the 1981 2F donor and loaded it up and took it to the science lab at Mosley Motors
Upon arrival I watched at #ETAF and the mad scientist inspected the bounty to determine worthiness
The motor was torn down without any major surprises. It was pretty rusty on the outside and inside the coolant passages, but the inside was clean. All of the bearings were still in great shape.
A few of the rings had rusted to the bore and left some pitting, but that will get bored out to new metal anyway, so no biggie.
One of the oil pan bolts had become one with the block, but welding a nut to the remains had it out in no time.
