Tips for starting engine on the ground

A manual bell and a flywheel needed.
I would not trust any wooden pos.



I will build the square frame that goes around the pan rail and like others have said the transmission is so I can bolt up the starter and torque converter so I have a way to crank the engine, I'm not up to doing rope-start even though it's a low-comp engine :D. That will be supported at the back as well with... something sturdy I'll figure it out lol. We are putting an A-833 behind it (professionally overhauled 18-spline :burnout:) but I don't think my cousin has ordered a bellhousing yet even though I've been pestering him about it. I also need gauges and at least a simple panel before I will even try to start it.

Any thoughts on the cooling and electrical? Still need to sort that out too.
