Engine Swap Hell

Irvine Meadows West RV Park, Irvine, California

August, 1990

 

Here we see a heart-warming sight:  In the foreground, the new 350 engine (with the old 283 valve covers installed); behind it, the 283, upside down with crank exposed and canister-style oil filter still attached.  Note the oil spills, greasy rags, parts, etc. in front of the trailer.
