Default Re: New to the hobby, first Engine

i don't have any means of pressure testing the block, so i might try that magnaflux stuff, or just give it a close visual.


Buying a pressure tester from Speedway is cheaper than sending an engine out to be magnafluxed. My advice would be to spend a bit of time reading every post you can, here and on the Hamb, about flatheads. Really aquaint yourself before lifting a finger. Then, dive in. The ultimate learning tool is practical experience. Remember, the only dumb questions are the ones left unasked.
