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

Check out this guy's break-in stand. :)




He painted it later...



The Aquamax...yes, this bike spent 2 nights underwater one weekend. (Not my doing), but it gained the name, and has since become pseudo-famous. :)

New?


yes new why do you ask ?

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).

Sarcasm detector, that's a real good invention.

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

good idea running up a freshly rebuilt engine  out the car & unpainted :yesnod: ,  once you know all is as it should be with the motor -- then paint it ,
Feel free to post any relevant picture you think we all might like to see in the threads below!

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.
