Among other things, I learned how to manually turn an engine. I pulled the plugs & gave the cylinders a shot of fog oil.............................Turning the crank pulley by hand is a real ball buster for this frame, but it works. However, this tool on the flex plate makes it super easy. Another board member recommended it. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I developed an assm. guide "kit" for restoring it from ground up. With assys, the guide accts for 1000s of OEM identifications and part numbers, all written in short order. 700+ images include assm, illust., charts, and points of interest. Much of the info. applies to all 67-72 GM trucks, and to a lessor degree all 67-72 GM vehicles. My build thread, and more on the guide https://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/...d.php?t=730025
