I remember a story my neighbor Maynard Rupp (Top Fuel) told me when they were in Tulsa for the World Finals. They carried up all of the parts and pieces to build a long block in a second floor motel room. They put the whole motor together and realized the motor was too heavy to carry down the stairs so they took a bunch of matresses from the rooms and threw the engine over the side rail onto the matresses. They also used the bath tub as a parts washer.
