    350 on engine stand question

     



    Hey everyone how's it going? Got a question I apologize for it being a little dumb got my 350 engine mounted on a stand it's got the heads on cast iron. Just was wondering if I can rotate the motor after I drain it to get to my oil pan just trying to freshen the engine up appearance wise! If any can give some advice would greatly appreciate it thanks mark!

    Yep, drain everything you can, get some Oil Dri to clean up the spill and flip it over.

    should be no problem.You have to rotate the engine at times when building a motor and they have minimal oil on bores and bearings then
