I didnt say I fired it up on the engine stand. I fired it up so I can make sure I can just install it in the blazer frame and it will be ready to go.

The reason for the post was to get "feed back on ideas" of why would anyone fire up an engine prior to installation, but I got the obvious replies. I will be more careful of what I post in the future on this forum. It appears lots of people here are more subject to look at the negatives than the positives.... common sense tells me not to fire it up on a engine stand but again I will watch what the heck I post in this forum. Thanks for all the great replies, I learned what I needed to know.
