Howdy all,
Well I've been watching this site for quite some time but never had anything to say until today!
I had my 1960 292 rebuilt by a local machine shop last winter in preparation of putting it in my 55 F-600.
I pretty much watched most of the process except the final assembly (big mistake probably)
I decided to do a little work on it and wanted to "spin" the oil pump to prime it and check oil n the top end.
Well, no oil in the top end!
I am hoping that the rocker tubes are just "turned" or something simple like that and not the block/heads are plugged or the camshaft bearings are not aligned with the holes etc.
Anyone with other ideas? I think the guy would make it good. I toyed with the idea of giving him a copy of Mummerts list of "mistakes" but didn't want to insult him (older guy)
Thanks
