is that engine on a mini pallet?! you gotta teach me those home made engine cradles! i really cant afford any welding or metal or anything for that matter. i got a budget motor. i just finished rebuilding a chevy 350 from a 79 camaro, but i got no cradle to start it on. ive seen guys work with wood and cynder blocks. and two by fours...any tips please!

@simmymini Tried anything ? Does it have spark ? Does it have gas in the carb ?
Well first off- why throw money at it when it doesn't run ? If it wont fire- then the timing has to be off...... Get a haynes manual and read up on setting the timing.

....its not that hard... I think if you can rebuild an engine, you should be able to figure out how to build a stand for it with some boards.....

@erico39shields1 If it is a mostly complete engine - heads/block/pistons/etc...and it runs or turns over at least, depending on the locale- from $250-$350 If it is just the bare block with no pistons or crank or anything- maybe $100 ? Just my guess - I bought a complete, but disassembled 350 , parts in boxes for $100

@simmymini Pull the coil wire off the distributor and put it near metal....valve cover or something- about 1/8 of an inch gap- have someone crank it over and see if there is spark.
