Ok ...I have a 65 dodge dart GT...upon completeing and adjusting a couple of months ago...I noticed a crack near one of the plugs ...carefully repaired and hidden under a little oil. Before reparing this I managed to overheat the engine and now left with knocking...black smoke ect...I want to rebuild it , but never rebuilt an engine before...I'm not afraid to turn a couple of wrenches and have some time....any suggestions?

Welcome on the board. You say you're not afraid to turn wrenches — that's good! But you also say you've never rebuilt an engine before, so before you decide whether to do it yourself or go another route, get and read these three books. |

You may-be better-off if you purchase a good used or already rebuilt engine and get your "hands dirty" by doing the installation yourself. DD |
