My straight truck is a 58 GMC 370 with the 270 inline six. Original engine with 77 thousand miles. It has full pressure lubrication (as noted by the oil leaking around the crankshaft rope seals) but NO oil filter. Seems like a bad idea on a grain truck.

It rarely leaves the county - why do I need something newer???
