I GOT IT TO RUN!!!!!!! Well, for a few seconds. I got my head bolt set today and put the head on and set the valve and ignition timing (I didn't get spark until I ran a ground straight to the distributor??) and without anything else set up i put a drill on the oil pump, but i dont think it spins it quick enough to create enough PSI because the oil pressure light was on, primed the carb and cranked it over and it fired right up, i put it in reverse and it went backwards and then i shut it off. Since the radiator is not in there was no place for the atf to go through, and so it ended up all over the floor, and without the timing cover on oil went everywhere, but it runs. I still would like to know of a way to test the oil pump too see if it may need to be replaced. my timing chain is off by one tooth both on the cam sprocket and the crank sprocket, so i just figured Ill deal with it when i get the new chain, sprockets and tensioners.
