 :ylsuper:  It runs......Fired right up on the first spin. No leaks - no issues.   But it sounds really good. Sounds a lot stronger than the 44o did :bigsmile:   It's cooling down right now.  Now I will set the timing , tighten the header bots and everything else , run the valves and put the front cap back on. And maybe I can go to sleep tonight. I have been up for 37 hrs now :eek4:

Peggy got some pics and a small video of it running. She will down load it later on :2thumbs:

6.0 wont be good enough either  :cheers:  :poopoke:  :aarg:

 :smokin:   it's not a street car, but I may run it wide open just for you :grinyes:  Like you posted in other places, it is just for fun.  I had been launching at 2800 and shifting at 5500, but for you, I will bring it up to 4800 and shift at 6800.  Nothing like weighing 2525 lbs to :wave:

 :eek2: Sure hope that lil 1/8 mile track at Carlisle has a nice long shut down streach for you and Jason.  :roflsmiley: gravel and sand, water pit- bungy cord fence.............  :smilielol: That is going to be one bad show next year.   :2thumbs:  :cheers:

Alan, looks like a sweet setup!  Not to be nosy....but, I was just curious to what kind of flow numbers those heads are putting out @ 5K, 6K, and 7K?  Thanks!

What an awesome setup!! Gotta love it!! I am waiting with baited breath to see/hear a video of that bad azz motor. Good job Alan!! I hope you feel better after the injections and with your health issues. Please take care of yourself. You have more energy that my 17 year old teenager. Make sure you get someone to video that thing when you decide to run it. Oh and those steaks (in the picture) got my mouth watering. Looks like you guys had an awesome time!!  :2thumbs:
