The only way it could hit when started but not turning it by hand would be if the lifters have collapsed from lack of oil pressure. Maybe do a compression check before firing it up to make sure you get similar readings on both banks. If it turns over, and the compression test is the same on both banks, then I would say you should be good.

Cool! Thanks, Mikey. I got the transmission lines on today, and the coolant lines and radiator installed; Its a 3-pass mishimoto aluminumw with the cobra fan, and i've made mounts to where the body flex won't affect it, which has made those leak in the past. I also need to drain the gas tank; no way I'm using 14 yp gas.I'm going to replace the oil, as I'm sure there's been condensation. It started raining at noon, so I'm stuck for now. 
Those have sealcon feed thrus with them; They won't leak water. But I have 2awg also; it's code to 90A. Stereo draws 57A under normal listening levels, so I'll keep the big stuff for my welder. They're at least 50lbs each.

That's what I was going on; I just wondered if there would be a difference running. All I have left is draining the gas tank. I'm going to fill a drum, in the trailer for the tractor, and take it out in a big field and burn it. I think I'll call the local fd and ask first. I'd hate to hack anyone off.

That keeps rocks and crap out of it.

The ac bypass. Well, Gordon, I guess I did mine black too! That's a 2003 Lincoln Towncar motor, with 725 miles. I saw the odo of the car it came out of; The bumper cover and stuff was in the back seat.

Gordo, that's the tru-cool 48k, I bought 3 of them from Dirtydog. it's as wide as the radiator, and ~8" wide. 1/2" fittings.I have 3/8 lines he made too, but I came across some all stainless lines, inside and out, so I'm using those. They were originally for putting liquid helium in an MR.
I've got to get rid of dirt dobber nests everywhere. I dug out stereo parts today; I've got to put it back in before I install the battery. I'm still looking for my box of car stereo stuff; I need a power block for 0 gage, and some other stuff, like fuse holders. The wideband is going in, so I need to find one of the plates I bought from racecougar. I need a switch for amp/ amp fan. and some other stuff.
Tomorrow, I'm going to carefully inspect the fuel rail. I covered all the other openings, oh crap. I removed the transmission filler tube, when I folded it in half. So, I'm dropping the pan on the trans. dirt dobber crap in the transmission would be bad. I have an npi filler, and a mark one. I have no idea if The mark one will bolt up to the Cobra heads. I think I can get the npi one to work on these pi heads. The pi one is never going to work again, lol.
I was looking for a pic of the crack pipe mod, but I can't find it.
you can get adapters off msc or mcmaster. I use hydraulic line swivels to make it easy to assemble. They'll take the pressure and temperature. You have to come out of the trans with a male to male fitting, and screw a short right angle on it to clear the tunnel. I'll see if I can find the partnumbers. I'll add pix

Although diesel works better (last longer), it would great as a weed killer; especially on blackberry vines.That's what I was going on; I just wondered if there would be a difference running.
