How many assemble their engines

Built a 273 hipo when in high school that went in my 67 Barracuda

Then a 350 SBC for my 72 Hugger orange and white 3/4 ton 4x4

An olds 455 in my 18' sidewinder jet boat

Don't do machine work

The 340 in my Dart had done hoping that one time would be the last, 3 x later it still isn't right. The machine shop machined it, built and run on dyno. Kept bending the push rods in the #5 cylinder. Have about 4,000 miles so far so good, just leaking too much oil.

Thinking today I should pull it and go thru it myself and do it the way I think it should be
