The engine looks great tho, just needs a chassis to match.

Lack of planning, improper tools and or assembly ingredients, and lack of us both not having the same days off work seemed to compound our lack of skill with this rebuild.
It doesnt help when your rebuilding the engine on top of a bucket of kitty litter.

Well the bag of arm and hammer didnt hold up too well to the weight of the engine so we had to step it up a notch to the plastic bucket off tidy cat. It held up pretty well. We even torqued down the flywheel nut with it sitting on there!!

I could send you a 5 gal. bucket, but you don't need the adapter plate to build and engine on the stand. You just need to pull out the studs from the front plate, where the ps and ac bracket mounts, and then use long bolts throught the mounting arms on the stand.
Funny part is, the engine is almost perfectly balanced and requires little effort to rotate.
