[update] I had trouble trying to put a video on here

so I took the motor back out, and found that my windage tray [ modified boss 302 [ --[summit racing], had a piece on it crack and left it spring up a little and was getting hit by#8 rod

long night , motor is set back in, no trani hooked up yet or radiator, exhaust , on and on


also I put a 3/8 fuel line on the dipstick tube and could here the noise real good
