Hi, I“ve got a few questions: I“ve the chance to buy a “56 FMD, the problem is that the engine block has been welded, the owner says it was done in 1976 was used until 2000 without any problems. Could a welded block be a problem? "How white" does the thing smoke if it burns water? I started it and ran it for about five or ten minutes and couldn“t recognize a white smoke, only black/blue. But perhaps its difficult to see the white smoke? Could i see the water in the motor oil on the dipstick, or do a have to drain the oil? The engine runs really well, never seen a fmd that runs so smooth and starts easily. How else could i find out, if there still is a crack on the inside of the block? Thanx for your help regards Tom
