I felt a couple small pieces about an 1/8” size

Thank you everyone! Does anyone know where I can get a sample of oil from the pan tested for the small pieces of metal that are in it that maybe would tell us where the metal is coming from?

When I went to get things for it they told me the engine is aCrestline. Was that an older model Ford?

Anyone know what the torque specs for my 54 Ford 239 Y block oil pan nuts and for the valve cover?

Engine is not stuck!! Yippee! Now to cleaning parts.

I will do what you suggested. I really appreciate your comments. I first want to see if we can get the engine running. You telling me ballpark figures, helps do much. I wanted to leave it to one of my sons but they don’t have room for it . I would like to get it in running condition so each of my children and grandchildren can drive it around town and then sell it. I will get more pictures.

I will try your way first, thanks. I was just curious where I’d look for an engine.

Where would I look to get a 272?

God Bless you! That’s a lot of info. We haven’t had car shows in the last year but maybe soon.

How do I add a picture off my phone?

Thank you very very much!!!!

I had a guy look at my engine in my 40 Continental. The engine is a V-8 and on the block is EBU6015F and 48K:3 on Exhaust manifold. Any idea what engine it is ? I know it’s a Ford.

Thank you!!!

I’m in Stockton, California

I will have to find a mechanic. I’ve been waiting on one for over a year to have time.

Thank you guys for the help. I need all I can get.

My Dads car has been sitting a few years. He had it in good running condition and even showed it Concours de Elegance events event though he had changed the engine in the 50s to a V8. My husband thinks I need to get a new engine since it hasn’t been run in so long. Any advise? Where would I find a new engine? What do I need to know?
