Hey guys,

So I was given a 1948 F5 Ford from my uncle. I always do routine stuff on my cars and trucks (brakes, starters, alternators, etc) but this is the biggest project I have every tackled.

After a lot of thought I have decided to give the Y block in her a try.  The engine was fully rebuilt by the Ford dealership not long before the truck was parked in the 80's.  Pulled the dipstick...the oil looks new.

I am about to pull the plugs and pour in Marvel Mystery Oil in each hole and let it sit for a few days before I try to turn it by hand (well wrench and pipe).

I know nothing about these engines.  Any and all advice much appreciated.
