I did this in my 65 'B back in 1982- engine in car and all. It needed
a head gasket, and I also changed the pistons & a couple valves.
That engine has seen a lot of use since then, and is currently in
Tilly's '74 GT. It is getting to be time for a rebuild, cuz it's
down on power (probably cam or valves), but the oil pressure has
been fine.

Whatever is most worn, allowing more oil to pass. Usually rods first,
(due to the pounding they take) then the inner mains (due to crank flex.)
