Thanks guys. I ordered a new Kevco 9qt oil pan, pickup and high velocity oil pump yesterday....so the pan comes off and I will be inspecting the bootom end for moisture. Good idea to replace the water pump and thermostat. If I take a chance and don't remove the heads, what would be the best way to lubricate everything? Prime the oil pump then spin it with a drill(after filling the engine with oil and an additive to break in the cam), oil into the cylinders through the spark plug openings....what else?
Thanks again!
