Hello to all. I need some advice, tips and tricks anything will help.
I'm rebuilding my 425 nailhead and want to build it to specs. I ordered the service manual already. So Im just about ready to pull the engine out. Its in a bad condition. Looks like its been abused. The oil is real dirty and there are leaks every where. My idea was to rebuild it myself, I dont have any rebuilding experiance, but I learn as I go. So before I do any real damage, where do I start. Should I take the time and do it myself, after all there is no other way of learning about your own car then to do it your self right? Or should I pay for it and take out the joy of doing it my self but have the piece of mind that comes along with a warranty?
Now as much as I would love a step by step instruction guide, it might be difficult to find. So instead throw me some pointers or things that I should look for or just some time saving tips. Thanks guys
BTW, I have a 64 la sabre wagon 3 seater, Bad A:shield:.
