Default Re: Running engine with no dip stick?

I got a late 28 motor off of craigslist, covered in grease and road dirt, I only bought it because of the price and all the dirt kind of told me that nobody had messed with it in the last 70 years or so. Anyway it didn't have a dip stick and had plugged the hole it's self with oil and road dirt, it is a self healing type of thing if you run them long enough. Other holes were filled in the same manner. I took it apart and found the timing gear was off one tooth so whoever ran it probably wasn't real happy after the last guy worked on it. Still has a good multi disk so I am going to use it for a while in my off road truck.
