Whilst my car sits in the driveway collecting hornet nests, I've finally accumulated the cash to do a few fixes here. First off, I gotta take care of the wristpin bangin around in #6.

My only question here, is there enough clearance to unbolt that rod, and turn the crank around to give me room to pull it all out without having to undo my entire rotating assembly?


This is all, of course, assuming there is no damage to the cylinder wall that will require machining, in which case its all coming out for a 347 kit.

hmm that's gonna be a tough one, never tried it, but worst case the motor will have to come off or at least the heads

well it seems like there would be enough room to pull it down but idk how u would compress your rings unless like mjr46 said u take your head off

Head has to come off, but you could do it with the crank in if you're careful.
