The 235 that is going into the 49 chevy is at the shop being worked on so we can rebuild it and get it into the car. This engine, from a 61 truck, was previous rebuilt so this time it is going .060 over so we need to get all new parts. This is our first rebuild so we have zero knowledge of what we need or what is good or at what price, etc.
Here is the list of parts that the engine guy says he would order and charge me around $1000. I don't know if these are quality parts and at a good price.
Silvolite Pistons and Pins .060
Sealed Power Moly Rings
Melling Camshaft
Melling Lifters
Melling Timming Set
Melling Oil Pump
Fel Pro Full Gasket Set
Clevite Intake Valves
Clevite Exhaust Valves
Clevite Valve Springs
Clevite Valve Locks
Speed Pro Intake Valve Guides
Speed Pro Exhaust Valve Guides
Speed Pro Valve Seats
Speed Pro Valve Srpings
US Steel Freeze Plugs
Any and all suggestions are welcome. Also if there are specific parts that you recommend, where can I order them and at what price?
The car will retain the 3 speed and stock drive train for now but eventually will get a T5 and a rear end from an S10 4x4. It will be a driver and a cruiser.
Thanks for the help, Bill
