Default Re: Opinion on a 36LB motor

At Hershey I was looking at a 36 engine that most likely was LB, it turned over but had no compression on 2 cylinders, logistics of moving it kept me from buying it for 200$--- I did buy a T engine for 10$ because it also came with a stand on wheels ( good block, standard bore, no cracks)
Kurt,

Was that you pushing that T motor at the end of the day in the Orange Field?
