I built this engine with a double roller timing chain and roller rocker arms with an Edelbrock manifold. It already has some pretty good parts to start with. Before I installed the pistons/ rods I remember the crank spun in the bearings almost like a top. It spun really smooth and ran good until it overheated like I previously mentioned.
