I just picked up a 68 GT/CS (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/e...0322930288&viewitem=&sspagename=STRK:MEWAX:IT)
I took it to Mustang Ranch in San Jose CA to get a tune up and they are telling me the car has some metal shavings in the oil pan and low oil pressure. They are telling me the motor is shot and needs crank bearings. However, the guy I bought it from is a mechanic, he checked everything out including the compression and it seemed ok. The engine feels stong and doesn't smoke...seems to run good. Any thoughts here ? What is normal oil pressure for these engines ? ...he is saying its down at about 20 psi. Wondering what to do here.
Thanks
