Nice looking motor.
I recall building a Ford short block many years ago.
Which brings up one of my off the wall questions -
The crank was hard to turn, probably from incorrect ring or crank bearing sizes.
What is an acceptable crank 'hand-turned' torque on a rebuilt shortblock?
For instance - if it spins with a speed wrench - its too loose???
On the other hand 30 ft/lbs is probably too tight???
Thanks - BertThere is no limit to what a man can do . . . if he doesn't mind who gets the credit. (Ronald Reagan)
