Default Re: flat spot in acceleration.

I know on small block Chevys, you can make something that fits down in the distributor hole tho turn the oil pump with a drill. All I did was unplugged the coil and electric fuel pump and turned the motor over a few times until I had oil pressure.

Before that, I squirted some ATF in each cylinder and slowly turned the engine over by hand to make sure I didn't have any sticky rings.

Probably better ways to get it done but I had to work with what I had on hand.
