351C tear down

[timsweet]

It's been a crazy two week at the salt mine, but I finally managed to pull out my 73's Cleveland and begin to tear it down.

Looks like I have a little rust issue up top.



What kind of repair can be done with this?

Sorry to see you had to tear the engine down. Your signature picture says"Drive Me!" so I hate to see you with the power train out.

Research "Heater Hoses" on the forum. http://www.7173mustangs.com/thread-heater-hose-connector-on-engine-block-needs-replacing

You can remove that nipple and replace with new one. Use Channel locks hammer vise grips heat, whatever to get it out then buy new one. I actually had the machine shop that was doing my rebuild drill and tap mine so I could plug it, since im not running heater. Then when I do decide to hook heater and ac up I just get a threaded nipple for it.
