I'm out of town for a week, but want to start ordering parts that I will need so I can hit the ground running when I get back. There are some parts that I will need to swap over that I'm not sure about the need to replace and would appreciate some advice on. The project vehicle has 200K miles:

1. Distributor. Should I bite the bullet and buy a new one, or would re-using the old one be OK?

2. Oil Pump. I figure that this is a good time to install a new one rather than reuse, but apparently the OEM ones are no longer available. Does anyone have a recommendation as to a good replacement brand. Prices are all over the map on these. Is this something that can be rebuilt?

Thanks.


As long as you did not have any major ignition issues i would reuse the distributor, just replace the cap/rotor.

Sorry can't say on the Oil pump, never replaced one on these motors.

I have to say, I wish i would have bought one of these instead of the used heads I just bought. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />
