That big block sounds very healthy

I have a 496 I rebuilt 3 times in 1 year in my garage ..They are easy to work on ..I had a friend spend time with me teaching me everything I need to know about these motors ..I have it now in a frame off restoration 64 Impala SS

That is exactly what mine is doing at 30:00. So glad i found this video!

Drop it in something ridiculously small and just have it as a dedicated burn out machine. Great vid

I appreciate the honesty of your videos. It actually takes multiple tries, sometimes many try’s in my garage when working on things. So many of the other channels edit out the failed attempts. Thanks for sharing.

Good motor. Great video. Look forward to all of them.

Degrease, replace all the gaskets and do a tune up. Should run well.

Love the videos!!!

Keep up the good work on these videos

I like it!

Pretty cool to see a motor run while sitting on the floor

great video!!

Ya know you can put distributor hold down tab on and tighten just snug so you can move by hand but won't move on its own.

Interesting custom made wooden Engine rolling Dolly that they engine is bolted to

Dont forget 454 has a weighted flywheel or a plate that bolts behind the flywheel like a weight.

will not build oil pressure until dist is installed

I would compression test it prior to putting in anything for Power Tour! 😊

Good truck swap

Why not oil cylinders prior?its been sitting 20 years

I skipped 95% of your video just wanted to hear it run or explode.

you serious?? No business
