402 Build Project Udate
 

Finally had some time to finnish assembling the 402 motor I've had in the works for awhile. Before buttoning up the cam covers and oil sump wanted to make sure the oil galleries in the block and heads were filled and flowing properly before firing the engine for the first time so I put together this pre-oiler rig. Used the regulator and gauges from my leak-down tester to control the air pressure at 10 psi.

Converted 2 gallon hand sprayer I picked up at Home Depot. Installed a air line quick connect fitting in place of the safty valve.

Engine connection point is the plug fitting located at the top side of the oil filter housing. Made a couple of plugs out of delrin to block off the oil cooler fittings. Inserted a short section of clear hose for a flow visual.
