289 Oil Pump Failure x2
I've got a 66 289 and I did some top-end work and went ahead and put in a new oil pump while I had it out of the car. I had about 11 hrs on the motor when the oil pump locked up. So I replaced it, then I get about an hour run time on the motor and go to test it down the street and it bleeds off pressure later to find another oil pump failure. Any Clues?
on small cars yes. but fat fender cars are pretty much the same in size and weight as the donor car. i found s10 brakes work great on fat fender and pickups. a deuce will just need manual brakes...
Time for brakes
