Test running engine before installing in car 200

Hi Mark:

I have to agree with the other posters. It would be far easier and far safer to drop the motor into the car and then do your break-in. What you are describing is a balancing act, you are going to need more hands than you have. If you find a problem you are going to have to figure out if it is a real problem with the rebuild or a problem with your test stand, fuel delivery, etc. This whole idea sounds like an accident waiting to happen, do you testing with the motor in the car.

Just my 2 cents.
