Ha Ha, very funny!  :-)
  
  That's the bone stock engine that sat in a guys garage for something  like 5 years.  Obviously there was no oil in the passages, but  everything was still coated with oil.  Which I found  amazing.  And it's still working.  The radiator developed a  hole last week, so I've got to fix that now, but that's easy...

Which engine was this?  The one you put in in '98, '00, or maybe way
back in '03?  

HAHAHA!

When I put the engine that had been sitting around for several years in
mine, they knocked horribly for a few minutes.  Then they quieted  down,
and have stayed that way for about 3 years now.
