I pulled the oil pan off of the engine that is going in my '57 Transtar to inspect everything. It came out of a '50 Commander. I notice the fuel pump had been replaced . The bolts that secured it where almost touching the camshaft. So be sure and not just use any old "long" bolt because of clearance issues with the cam.
