Crawdad-let me know about that motor. Im in need.

Okay guys, its torn down as far as i could get with hand tools. Quite a learning experience!

Pulled the dipstick again first and this is what it looked like.

Got the headers off next and started pulling plugs. They all looked good except for #2...

Next i pulled the carb. Look what it had for dinner.

I have been running an Edelbrock Performer 289 intake since the rebuild and have always had an overheating issue on the trail. I noticed what looks like the back two water passages are blocked off by the intake, why would it be made like this? You can also see what looks like AntiFreeze in the valley.

#2 Again, not even sure i know how this happens.

And finally after draining a gallon of antifreeze followed by a nice frappuchino-esque liquid from the oil pan this is what i found.

Block is toast also i believe. Dont think this will buff out. :banghead:

Been a long day, What years were the 28oz imbalance motors made?

Thanks,
Nate
