Re: 1949 Chevy 3600 into a daily driver
Id def make sure the head isn't cracked bf I put it back on. Just make sure everything is clean and torqued right. Put sealant on your head bolts and wait a day bf you fire it back up. Its ok to retorque after a day too. I'd then do a compression test. just put the gauge in that cylinder and disconnect your distributor wire, crank it over and see what it has. If you have zero or very little compression, Id say your piston or rings would be the next problem. where they replaced?
