The engine, a 350 SBC, is fully assembled and broken in on the bench. (yes i attached water to the inlets via garden hoses.....)(and, yes, i am partially deaf now.)

Now it needs to be installed.

Obviously the front bar is attached and everything I can think of is attached.

My plan is to balance the engine on my motorcylce jack, slide it underneath the car and start jacking. So to speak..... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/dry.gif)

If anyones installed a SBC what are some tricks to making this a little easier than the mess I'll probably make of it?
