I have engine mounted in a sub-frame on caster wheels now but have done this testing of engines with them just sitting on the oil pan on garage floor.
I have empty 5-speed tranny case I use to mount starter and also for tranny mounting in sub-frame mount point. Use lower engine mounts, too.
I am using a 24v radiator so both hoses on right side. Have exhaust down pipes, cat and an aftermarket spare muffler for noise control.
Used my type 27 battery out of my truck.
I used my 164S car for fuel system pressure and return by hooking up long flexible fuel lines from parted out various 164s for pressure and return hoses I hooked to disconnected pressure and return hoses from my 164S engine. Removed fuel pump relay and jumpered pin 30 to 87 pin sockets in relay holder and turned on the key in the S to run fuel pump in tank. Got about 50 psi fuel pressure.
Hooked up direct reading oil pressure gauge and got about 80 psi.
Didn't run engine long today so didn't put any coolant in it yet.
I need to install P/S belt and hoses and some racks I want to test next.
