Will do.....have not gotten back to that project yet LOL :rolleyes:

There is no "CAD" plating on these cars. It is a misnomer.....it is "Yellow Zinc" which is the idustry slang for ""Zinc Diachromate".
Clear Zinc is idustry slang for "Zinc With Chromate" which is...

You can try fleabay or Kennedy American Or Galvins. Just do Google search for their names and ad AMC on the end.

It is actually "cast" into the block. Reach between the motor mount and trace the raised surfaces with you fingers to tell. You will feel raised numbers. You almost have to be a contortionast to do...

ooops, I think I'm wrong....5.9 is 360....sorry
Jerry

Yup, just assumed it was head gasket and I know heads and intake are sealed good know. At the rate the water flows into the crank case it has to be timing cover. Not used to AMC engine quirks yet but...

A 5.7 is a 360 not a 343...
-
Thanks for the reply.....I suspect it is the timing cover as I redid the top end and the water enters as fast as I can put it in the rad.
Thanks

70 390s have half inch bolts with 5/8 heads.
-
Is there any other way for water from cooling system to be dumped into crank case except the obvious....blown head gasket or cracked block?
Thanks in advance
Jerry
Oh yea...it's a 360.

I had one of those years ago and actually trid to kill it but she just kept goion like the energizer bunny.
Great potential there bud, nice find. ;)

Welcome Sassy, I think we ALL wish we had cars back that we let go LOL.....I know of quite a few I'd like to have back LOL

There are the 4 piston bendix units out there but they are pricey and you would need the proper mounting hardware to go with them.....whats\'s wrong with single piston???.....I like them and Mopar...
-
Welcome bp2800 and good luck with the project.
-
LOL, dunno for sure cause I'm a Mopar guy too.....on a fast AMC learning curve. Go to my website and you'll see. I restore Mopar cars and parts for a living.

Here are some pics of my 70 AMX390 waiting in line for resto plus some other stuff and the url to my website.....beware if you are on dial up.....lots of flash sigs....

Unbolt fan shroud and slide it back over the fan, then undo all hoses and lines to rad, unbolt from core support and lift out.
-
I'll give you 1000.00 Canadian for it. It's not a real AMX.....they did not come with 6cyl.....it's a clone.
-
-
I don't have any answers for you....but WELCOME :)
-
Welcome bud....enjoy!! :)
-
Very true, but if the AMC market goes the way the Mopar market has people are paying BIG bucks for clones. Could be quite awhile for AMC if that scenerio happens though.
-
I agree with you.....but there is always someone willing to buy a 70.
