YES. make sure the button is on top of the rotor.
good deal. does this have a dynaflow? if so, you have hyd lifters and that could be your Tick. or its fuel knock. if dflow, pull your rocker cover and start the engine, you should have oil...
got the email notification. glad I popped in to see this. lookin good man.
thought your issue was "would not crank" why messing with this other stuff? I would break each system down one at a time and troubleshoot from there. reference the 52 shop manual up in the...
nice welcome
good deal. just keep posting comments, then you can post pix
welcome, and good luck. Bobs automobilia and cars inc have a lot of parts. also see the reference tab up top of this page. go to the '52 manual, it'll be close to the same.

nice looking ride
sounds like some fun projects
above there is a reference section with some info and manuals. there is also a specific straight eights forum with info. the s8 is cool, but if you are going Chevy you have more HP potential with a...
I ordered the 0-6000 rpm gauge from speedway.
