I'm new to site and need help. I bought a basket case 61 station wagon with a super hurricane about a year ago and began on rebuilding the engine. Just now starting to reassemble and due to time past and not being the original person who disassembled, I'm stuck.
I need to know where the oil gallery plugs are located and how the timing chain is oiled. Do I have/need a nozzle? There is a threaded hole on the front of the engine block that appears to have an oil journal through the side. what goes there?(nozzle?)
Thanks.

I'm not well versed in Super Hurricanes, but there should be a 90 degree fitting that directs oil to the chain. Now, is there an orifice on the end of the fitting to hold pressure? I can not find any information either way, but I will keep digging and let you know what I can find.
