Given to me by neighbor for favors I've done for him. It rode home on front on tractor. Can I still say it followed me ?

8BA with an open drive tranny, I wouldn’t have turned it down either.

Over the next couple weeks i'll separate the trans/motor.
I'll put the motor on a roll-able run (I'll have to make it) stand and the trans on a shelf.
I'll take my time tearing the engine down. I was told it is stuck. pics and questions I'm sure as things progress.

Just reverse up the drive.....

Wwll I guess it pays to do a little work before you shoot your mouth off. Here's numbers on the motor.
What can you tell from this?

Yes it followed you home, bottom photo looks just like a puppy on it's back begging.

EAB is a late motor and those are good heads to use. I never turn one down either!!!...Mark

I saw this on the hamb too.

Congrats on the horse trade motor. Get the kroil or whatever on it.

Let us know how it turns out! trans is worth it alone.
