BF Avery issues UPDATE

To bad your scrapping that core

I'm not.....I actually got it free and turning. It pumps oil . Need a gear and it's good to go. But I have ordered a good used pump,$60 shipped to me.

Someone asked about the bearings and crank shaft? They are good now. Was covered in rust, had to use an air chisel to get the bearings off the crank and rods .... terrible mess. Lots of really, really aggressive sanding ( and some Dremel work) everything is shiny and smooth. All back together . Unfortunately,there are folks here who will believe this fictional tale . . Can't wait for the crazy replies

Suggest accounting for what I see was someone’s dragging it to free the lock up. Highly recommended looking at the cam gear for fractures teeth. Just what I see in photo ,
I use ag lime and kerosene to detect cracks old method, or crack detectors commercial available.
I’m only suggesting this is I don’t want to hear one of the cam teeth crunching the oils pump and locking it back up after all your wasted hard work .

The question is posed about the bearings because you ran it with no oil pressure. Hopefully you used a good and abundant amount of assembly lube. FYI, keep the fictional replies for your pals on FB. I’m not sawing the legs off of every FB user, I’m sure there are intelligent folks on there posting good content. But some ya-hoo showing an engine supposedly in an IH1256 with a chrome turbo with an air pipe coming off of it the size of your thumb and a 5 cylinder injection with brake line couplers in the injector lines, that the type of stuff I have no time for.
