Hello,
 
I am brand new to the forum and a novice at rebuilding engines.  This will be my first attempt.
I currently have an 85 CJ7 with the 258.  
I ran across an add on craigs for the following.
"$400.00
amc 360 v8 runs jeep motor still in truck its my daily driver so i know its good t4 trans goes with im putting a cummins in my jeep
will pull if your serious can here jeep run and drive, also have an edelbrock intake for it so you can run a 4 barrel carb"
 
I went Saturday to pick it up, unfortunately that also meant pulling it.
 
When I got it home I started looking everything over.
It has a set of Headman Headers on it.
Eddlebrock Torker Intake
The tranny is actually a T-176
He through in the Flowmasters
So I think I did fairly well.  I will be selling the tranny.  I have a t-176 that was just rebuilt.
 
Is there anything I should plan for "out of the norm" on the rebuild.  I was reading that the oil pick-up wasn't that great and there were mods that can be done to correct the issue, etc.
 
Are there any nice rebuild write-ups out there.
 
Thanks
Mike
