Okay guys, I have been trying to get into a truck for a few months now, but just has not worked out so far. However, I have another option, but need some advice.
My father gave me a 1964 Chevy pickup several years ago, but the 283 has been sitting on an engine stand since about 1993. Now I know I am not going to be able to just put that engine back into the truck and be good to go, but not sure how far I should have to go. The engine ran great before it was replaced with a 454, so I was hoping I would be able to slide by with a gasket set.
I guess my question is should I try a gasket set and see what happens or what should my first step be? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
