    I'll agree with Mike. Just clean the motor once you get it. Handling a greasy dirty motor just drags it all down. You can use it to mock up all the mountings etc... I'm still curious as to what trans you'll use too. I run a 347 stroker 302, based in a 86 5 point oh. With an AOD trans and a 3.90 rear axle.. We named her Citation...as the local cops were handing them out liberally.. My avatar is that motor.

    Nice motor! Remind me, the AOD is the automatic right? Right now I'm leaning towards a T5 but would not be opposed to an automatic.
