Hey mrfixit, thanks for the reply. I pulled the head off after trying to pump oil thru the engine at the distributor using a drill. It makes about 80-90 psi oil pressure but gets none to the top of the engine. The oil supply hole under the rocker shaft mount is apparently plugged. I think it gets its oil thru that hole rather than up thru the push rods and that is probably what killed the pushrod cups. There is no valve damage or signs a valve has hit a piston. The rocker shaft has minimal wear and the cam shaft has no or minimal wear according to the specs I found on line. I am going thru the motor since there is so much sludge build up. I have 1 rod that seems to have more than normal up and down play(#4). I pulled the rod cap off and the crank is scored. It appears someone has changed the rod bearings but did not have the crank turned. The rod bearing shows less wear than the crankshaft. The rods are.025 but I am guessing I will need at least.050 for that rod. I will only change the others if needed. The # 3 rod bearing and crank look perfect. I hope the rest are good. I may need the main and rod bearings. I am definitely going to need the cam gear and gaskets. The crank gear looks good. I cant find a manual for that engine anywhere but I have found the specs. It seems that the UA and the VA shared a lot of the lower engine parts and cam shaft. Do you know if the cam gears are the same between the UA and the VA or if there is another alternate part that may work. I think the mains are the same but not sure about the rod bearings. Hopefully they are. There seems to be more parts and info on the VA engine. Also do you know if the bolt pattern on the back of the block(transmission mount plate bolts) on the UA are the same on other engines? I would consider using a different engine if applicable. FE, F2, VA, B series etc. I only have $200 and gas to pick it up invested in the truck at this point. I feel like it is worth fixing. All of the other fluids look like new and the truck has set for several years. I would prefer a good used cam gear at this point unless they are fairly priced new. I would really appreciate your opinion and any help with part numbers. Sounds like you have worked on this engine before. Is there any interchangeable parts from other engines to the UA? Any info would be greatly, greatly appreciated!

Lenville
