Well hopefully I can get this engine in my truck this weekend. Yesterday I rearranged the bolts on my engine stand so that way it can turn over with out catching on the flywheel. So I was turning it over. It's turns over no problem you gotta use some elbow grease because of compression but it's nothing getting caught or anything it's free. So I have confidence the engine will do fine.

I went and got my ram horns yesterday and I went home and just put 2 bolts on both of them just to get an idea..... I LIKE IT! So today I'm gonna get some bolts and hopefully my gasket and oil. Then I can button up the bottom end of the engine! And I'll go ahead and get the rest of the gaskets all on and everything all bolted

I normally go for the swap meet and then wander through the show, but I may hang out a while this time

jbclassix · 03-14-2013, 08:11 PM

Rick!!! get rid of those rubber strips of intake leakers, then run a bead of "Right Stuff" silicone front and back. Then let it cure for atleast 12 hours before running it!

**Ol Blue K20** · 03-15-2013, 02:17 AM

Posted via Mobile DeviceRick, you're being a little on the quiet side. hope it's cause youre busy.

shawno72 · 03-15-2013, 07:15 AM

Yep we're gonna have to keep his thread going without him again

so Dale, as I'm driving this big block 396 elco, the engine looks fairly clean and appears to have been repainted and rebuilt not to long ago, it was sitting in my buddies back storage for a couple of years, anyway as I hammer down the gas pedal it takes off and has some good power. Enough power for me to say "yeah this has the potential for some tickets", but I am saying to myself that my truck would eat this thing up. Now the big block sounds like it had a stock cam, nice smooth idle. After seeing my cam specs and knowin that I only have 1.94 heads is it possible that my hp's are up around 350?
