Scuncio Chevelle ex-L78

[TomN]

I'm thinking of having someone weld a short bolt onto the pipe plug in the cylinder head.
Build up the weld quite a bit to get lots of heat into the pipe plug.
But I don't know if I am better to drain the water down in the engine - maybe gets more heat into the pipe plug - or leave the water in the engine while the bolt is welded on.
Any thoughts or other ideas? This is not a restored car, nor am I restoring the car, just trying to get everything working and make it useable.

Thanks sixt9rsx33 I also saw some very nice pictures of a car I believe the427king was doing.

I do have a working oil pressure gauge now. Not without some doing since the car has headers on it.

Still got to find the orange wire (I think) that will make the 'tach' work. There is a piece of old orange wiring sticking out of the firewall. but I haven't located the wire on the new under dash wiring harness.

Tom, The tach wire should be brown and comes out of the wiring harness close to the coil.
