Well I got it running again. Runs smooth with new timing set. Transmission wouldn't turn the tires but it just needed some more oil so all good there.

Couple little issues. The water pump is seeping out of the back. I sacrificed some wrenches, ground them down to tighten the 6 bolts. It slowed it down but doesn't appear to have stopped. Ill double check again tomorrow but it will probably need a new back gasket. Man, I don't want to pull it all apart, chip bolt paint etc. So frustrating.

Also when I had the rad re-cored I went with a three core. Not knowing there was a difference in shrouds. it doesn't fit like it did before. I used some small hose for spacers for the time being.

I guess there were a lot of things done to not have any problems.
