27 Chev Truck Update from Bernie of Belgium

Received an email from Bernie, the engine strip down is underway.

His email was .........


Ray hello,

Yesterday I dropped the cylinder head, what simplicity compared to the modern engines or everything is concentrated and difficult to access ... After an initial examination, the cylinder head to air in good condition 2 or 3 valves are blocked, but the joint plane is perfect, no crack, the two screws of the thermostat housing and the thermostat is damaged, we find thermostats rebuilt ?. With regard to the engine, it was blocked since they are inactivity. 

I had spun it by hand a few years ago with a mixture of oil and petrol. Yesterday, breech cylinder I spilled this same mixture in the cylinders after cleaning the scale and a crank the engine returns freely ... I attached some photos, if you could give me your opinion regarding the condition ? Following the next issue ...

PS: I always have as much fun to browsing the lot of page on your blog ....
Thank you.
Greetings.
Bernie
