Any good tips for firing up motor on engine stand?

^^^^^^NOW THAT is the funniest damn thing I've seen All week!!!!! Hahahahahaha!!!! I freaking love that!!
Watch in the beginning when he starts it, the engine rocks back and forth and his gauge falls down. Omg I'm dying. LOL

And I agree with RRR, just reading this thread makes me want to go build one, and run the 408 stroker that's been on the roller cart Crackedback built me. It's been sitting long enough!!!!

I changed the link several times,as YouTube is full of these.I could not find the one I originally wanted to post . The guy fires up his 340 and is sitting on the trans revving it as if he's gonna ride the thing right out of there.freaking hilarious! Sorry for the tangent here. I would build a simple stand if I was gonna do this as I'd be afraid the thing would fall over on my leg!
