yea i saw the engine getting ran on tv the other day and i noticed it was an olds v8 because of the valve covers,i thought It was about time!
 
I watched both episodes about the build up... I was kinda shocked when he said they were going to be working with an Olds motor...

It came out pretty nice. They seem kinda clueless when they try to start/tune it though :lol: :lol: quote]

Saw that too, as well as the first episode when The Dr. was building up the short-block - stated it was running great when it was running like pure crap?! Didn't understand that at all. I was yelling at the screen, check the timing and fuel delivery - she's running bad & starving - it's not a SBC!!!!!

Despite that and the fact they didn't state what oil they put in after the initial break-in glad they FINALLY built one and didn't gloss over it like they usually do.
