hello. well, coming back from car show last Saturday, the engine seized and threw a rod, low oil pressure. don't know, but I guess the pressure gauge maybe was working. either way, the engine is out and sent to machine shop as I think the block can be saved as its number match. rod went thru oil pan and chipped the top of a valve in block. I am going to get actual gauges after all this as this no fun, not to mention my budget didn't have a rebuilt engine in the plan. either way, I guess I will get a new engine. question, the headers have some surface rust in a few places, they are ceramic, can I take SOS pad to remove rust so it don't get worse? might as well do some "cleanup" work while the engine is out of the car. it is the original 350 that came with the car.
