I am new to invaders but was looking for a sled i could race in a vintage oval race near the family cabin in northern pa. I bought one then found a much nicer one so now i own two. One 78' with 2000 miles that sat outside for last several years so is a bit weathered but ran when parked. The other 81' has 3700 miles but stored indoors and is in real nice shape, except the heads where pulled to replace a leaking head gasket. Cylinders and pistons look good.
Now my questions. Are the cylinders chrome? Should i replace the rings before reassembly? Based on what i have read, i guess i must replace the crank seals? Is the 78 and 80'engines the same? Will an invader make a good oval racer?
I plan to make one good sled and sell or part out the other
