engine runstand post CAR IS DONE MORE PICS B5 BLUE 70 R/T #MATCH

[Charger-Bodie]

im sure some of you also have a run stand but it is a new toy for me and it really works nice to break in the cam , make sure there arent any leaks ect. before painting it and putting it in the car by the way the 440 on the stand is for my cousins #s matching 70 charger r/t which i will try to post pics of this weekend sometime

Geez, from the pic it looks like it has about 200,000 miles on it.  It must just be a bad pic.

It says: "before painting it and putting it in the car". You can change a cam, head gaskets, crank, etc. without making the engine look "new" on the outside. Everyone is a critic...

It looks like the engine hoist is holding up the trans tailshaft.

I want to build an engine stand but I don't know where to start so any ideas are appreciated. That one looks pretty beefy (so do the ones later on).

THANK YOU TROY !

i am planning on posting more pics tonight of the painted gine, and the stand without the engine and tranny on it
the reason the cherry picker is holding the tailhousing is because we ran the engine with the old h pipe exhaust and the pipes hit the tranny support and rather than deal with it at the time we just used the picker we have a set of headers and pipes we will use for most of the engines we will run but Erik wanted his manifolds on for this so eh oh well

[Charger-Bodie]

ok maybe these pics will suit some of you a little better heres one:

another picture i will post one of the 70 charger r/t it belongs to this weekend

[tan top]

good idea running up a freshly rebuilt engine  out the car & unpainted ,  once you know all is as it should be with the motor -- then paint it ,

[Charger-Bodie]

I just thought id add that if anyone wants any full size good pics of the runstand i can email them it is really nice to have it works great and best of all it didnt cost that much for the tubing to build it , it even comes apart so it dont even hog up a ton of space.....just feel fre to pm me and ill email them right to ya!

Nothing like a out of car break-in. You can take care of any leaks or other little things that become a PITA to get to once it's in the car. Look forward to pics of the Charger.

Just messin.' It's not always easy to tell where people are coming from in a text-only format. I have a dry sense of humor and it doesn't always translate well, even in person. Sorry if I pushed your button.
