Compression is your problem, 30 is way too low, 90 should be the minimum and being hot is not going to make up the difference. If the engine was running before the odds of all six losing compression at once is strange. Valve clearance can be set cold, add .002 for the exhaust but set the...

Will we be going to the Home Plate for fish? Can't wait! Frank

Nice job! That will look great when done. Frank

You can buy a PTO for the NV4500, that is what I did on my truck. I believe it was a Muncie. Frank

Very nice install, but I would paint the filter 24087 to match the truck. Frank

Do not use a bronze bushing to replace the rollers, it will not get enough lubrication and will wear out. I wouldn't use the brinneled shaft either. The NOS one is questionable depending how bad the corrosion is. If it were my truck I would look for another shaft. Have you tried Surplus City...

If you have the timing gears aligned per the manual and as shown in your photo, that is correct. Frank

I use '78 - '79 Dodge W200 - W300 reverse rotation as a steering box. Frank

Pump could be obtained at NAPA, pulley and mounting bracket would have to be found in a salvage yard. Hoses to the gear would have to be made. Frank

I used a stock Dodge steering pump, pulley, and bracket on my 360, with no flow valve. Frank

It's a pipe nipple, usually a brass one, available at most hardware stores. Frank

Good choice!
