    Break-in oil is not just for flat tappet cams, but also for piston rings seating properly. Using a break-in oil without friction modifiers helps seat the piston rings, but it needs to be removed after 100-200 miles at the most, and replaced with a synthetic oil for modern passenger vehicles.

    Vr1 does not actually have as much zinc as you would think, their website states 1100 ppm and that’s not enough for a fresh cam. However it does work ok for an older established engine.

    I would have rebuilt the trans if I had to take it out, and 350 valve gets full of crud and needs cleaned out as well. Install a shift reprogramming kit also as 3rd gear is weak and the kit opens up more oil, and new hi pressure springs for pressure and 2-3 really help a 350.

    Don’t be scared of it back it off let her click, ease it in until it stops. Do them all this way then you can go back and do a 1/4,1/2,3/4 of a turn. Can’t be scared of it, you’ll know if u back them off too far they get loud lol. Another trick is to take a junk set of valve covers if h have any laying around and drill holes in them or cut the center out to access the lifter nuts for mess free adjustment. Also another tip is to remove the rocker arm nuts with engine off and dimple or slight cremp the top of the rocker arm nut so the nut won’t back off, a lot of people don’t realize this but the rocker arm nuts are theoretically “one time use”. Not meant to back off and run in more than a few times. Just my 2 cents take it like a grain of salt. Another option is to Drain a quart of oil out then top it back off with a quart of desiel fuel, fire it up let it idle for 20-30 min around 800 or 1000 rpm. Do not put engine under load during this procedure. Then drain and add new filter and oil. This should help flush out sludge from pushrods etc.

    NOTE.. The frame wont simply fall away from body on drivers side. The steering box is attached to frame and steering linkage holds subframe fairly tight to underbody. Steering box needs to have bolts pulled out to get freeplay between subframe and body.. ( Didnt need to loosen steering box ) Passenger side is as you stated.. At least in my 1970 I just swapped bushings out, except driverside front subframe bushing.. Update, I loosened up all bushings around the subframe this morning.. Was able to persuade the front subframe bushing to come out. Was still needing a pinchbar to pry a bit but done. I didnt want to loosen up the bushings on passenger side too much. I had very thick spacer washers atop bushing. Remembered to put back.👍

Initially i turned the idol up and it started back firing really loud When i turn the key off. I was embarrassed to work on it at home because the back firing was so loud (gun shot loud high caliber). Friends said it was timing or i needed a new carburetor. Nope just idol control screw.

    I pulled my 351 because of freeze plugs repeatedly popping or slow leaking. Finally, I removed all of them, threaded the holes, and screwed in brass plugs with pipe dope on the threads. That was 10 years and 40,000 miles ago. No leaks. Freeze plugs aren't there to protect a frozen engine anyways. Two NPT taps, grind about half off the length of one of them to finish the thread. Then the proper size NPT plug. I can't remember the size.
