I figured I would revise this and post what I ended up doing... I had the original 4-bolt engine completely rebuilt. Ended up going with a 50s pulley so it does not have the hand crank pulley assembly anymore. I’m ok wit that and excited with the build! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The guy I got my donor motor from has the flywheel for the engine. Aside from counting the teeth is there any way I can determine this from the flywheel casting? They are both 14” flywheels Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Looks like I need to remove the clutch plates to access the interior bell housing bolts from the block. Motor is seized any ideas how to access these bolts? I can’t spin the flywheel to access the other bolts on the clutch plates. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Nice - that’s what we have prepped so far, radiator is out, all externals disconnected. So far I just need to remove the starter linkages and clutch assembly. I guess I was just worried because I have my donor motor and when I used the picker to remove it from my pickup truck we could only...

Hey guys! Ok well I found what I expected to be a CCKW and it is actually a CCW. I can see some yellow paint underneath but the cab interior and engine are green. I can’t tell if the thing was used for military reasons or not at this point. With this being said I have a donor motor to put in it...
