Mine was stiff when working it back and forth on the trailer. Once I got it on the water and under power, it was amazing!
Hmmm might have to go scoop that up.
Don't waste your money unless you plan to use it for mock-up in a car or truck. For mock-up in a jet boat, they are virtually worthless as there is no crank centerline to reference.
Or you can...put it on a stand, get all those parts from off the ground, from under the work bench, from stuffed inside the boat(s) and assemble for the man-cave or living room if that's your thing. I know there's one guy here that would do it
Those are available for $385 new,, this outfit makes all kinds of different ones.http://www.vanpeltsalesstore.com/FG-3030-Replica-454-Chevrolet-Long-Block--1-piece_p_401.html
