Look whats in my shop two 454 chevys.

A buddy had a guy lined up to assemble these he had to go back home which was out of the country for some reason so I volunteered to assemble them. Should be fun except for the fact my back is acting up and pulling on a torque wrench is painful. Its been awhile since I have been inside an engine. More later.

Right there's some good iron.

I love building engines.

Sit on a low stool or chair and brace your chest against the engine (pad where needed) and try it. Get the engine chest level if you can.

Your're on your own with setting the crank!

Its been awhile, life gets in the way. But here is an update.
We are close to firing up for a test run and timing set. Then I hand them off to the errr... guys down near the lake for the install.
