How To: C15a Wire-3 restoration

[Jordan Baker]

It is a Chevy 216 replacement engine. Yes I did hear and see it run and I was very pleased with it. It came from a running pickup where the owner wanted to install a small block v8. My plan is to use all the army bits/right hand drive parts from the wartime block.

The big thing I am having to do is remove the clutch, flywheel and bellhousing and install the wartime bell housing. The orange engine doesn't have any cutouts for the clutch fork on the right side and the rear engine mounts are different.

So now I read up on how to accomplish this.

Funny enough I hear the horseshoe comment a lot while at work. I've got quite the collection.
