Hi group,

I'm currently in the process of resurrecting my first car, a '56 Sunliner purchased in 1967. It was wrecked in 1971 and has been in dry storage ever since. I have removed all of the sheet metal from the firewall on forward. I just completed restoration of a 292 Y-block for the project and will bring the car into my shop this spring for installation. Before I install the engine, I'd like to make sure the air cooled transmission is okay. I had it rebuilt shortly before the 1971 accident. What things should I do to it prior to engine installation beyond new fluid and pan gasket? I figure it will be easier to work on with the engine out of the car.
