Been offered a rebuildable (?)1954 Flathead 6 230 CID "P25" Dodge engine and four speed transmission. Last ran in 2005 or so; it has no compression due to leaky exhaust valves. It turns freely, both it and the transmission need a rebuild (the trans synchros were not working well). It was last rebuilt for the military in 1972, believe to 30 over.

The machined boss has a stamping: "*P25*298II*". There is a casting part # of "1484929-34", and a casting date code of "3 15 54", which I take to mean March 15, 1954.

Need some advice guys! should I go for this as I need a new engine and trans for my '46 WDX? Will this bolt in and replace or will it be complicated???
