Default O/T Bunch of bowtie buffoons...

Not to mention the fact that it's a cookie cutter SBC, but firing an engine on an ENGINE STAND? I wouldn't trust these morons to change my air filter.

Did anyone else notice they were running the engine for quite awhile with no cooling hooked up?

Aside from the engine just getting too hot, won't you ruin the waterpump bearing and seal running it like that with no water in it?? There was a belt on there because I saw the alternator turning.

The best part is that the comment section of that video has been turned off. Chicken $hits afraid of all the flames they'd get.

Great way to break in the rings ... let it idle for 3 minutes or so. That was either a "business" or a school. Too bad the guy running the engine was a moron. Think it might have been wise to at least tighten the bolt on the engine stand? Na! No adventure there!

Blykins - calling that 305 a SBC was an insult to all SBC fans.

let's see ...... resting your shin on the header to brace it against the torque .... that's ....... clever. Leaning over the spud with no air filter is ..... cleverer ........

I hope that's a business .... cause it can out of. If it's a school then all the wrong things are being taught.

blykins ..... they have the air filter changing bit down pat .... they simply don't use one.
