I don't think there is a "right and wrong" on this one.... I personally
found it easier to install the head when the engine was still on the engine
stand. .....But then, I also installed the engine, head, intake manifolds,
engine mounts and trans as a unit, through the opening in the primered
shroud!! Not recommended, (but done successfully).

I am about to re-install my engine. The block and head are still apart. Is
there a problem with installing the block and head separately? I thought it
may be easier to manuever around.
