I am planning on pulling the B18 engine out of my 67 wagon to facilitate the cleaning up of the engine compartment, clean and paint the block, retrofit Sus, add an M41. new stainless exhaust with a nos Abarth resonator 123 ignition, retro fit a Delco alternator with swem bracket. and some other things I've been collecting over the years. The engine is strong, does not leak oil and the only mods I can be sure of is that it has a fuel inj head and an IPD valve cover. What else can you all recommend that would be a good idea to improve or change while the motor and transmission are accessible? For example< what about engine oil seals, do I switch to the more modern alternatives or do I leave well enough alone? Like Obama my door is open to any ideas. Thanks
