Smokey Yunick NOS 67 Z-28 MO 302

[iluv69s]

Does anyone know about the motors that Smokey sold at his auction? I heard that he freshly rebuilt all the motors just before the auction.

This motor is going in my 67 Z-28 and was purchased at Smokey's auction. I have the smokey documentation and list of parts also from the auction.

I'd appreciate any suggestions what I should check prior to firing the motor up. Should I just rebuild the whole motor?
Do any of the oils/and/or parts go bad just sitting?

I am going to disassemble it somewhat and take a look inside. Thought you guys may be interested. "As touched by one of the greatest Chevrolet mechanics/minds of all times".

This is the first time taken apart since purchased at his auction.

thanks, max
