First firing of the 394!

I pulled the 394 out of my 1964 Dynamic because it was filthy, leaking oil bad and running like crap. I also pulled the transmission (I used to be okay calling it a "trannie"... but that word has taken on a new meaning since the 70's...) and cross member, tried to clean everything as best ask I could. I wanted the engine bay to be something I'd be proud to show people. I fired it up today-p0 here's a short video clip. I'll post more as I move towards completion...

Looks good and sounds good, nice work!

Be careful starting that inside without the air cleaner on. Was just a few posts ago we were discussing popping out of the carb...
