Yes.... You know where I'm at.  I have an enclosed trailer you can use.

The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realize it doesn't say anything it's to late to stop reading it.

I appreciate ti Cody but somehow driving all the way to Portland to get a trailer & then driving back to calgary to get my car & then driving all the way back down to vegas didn`t make sense

It`s ALIVE  :2thumbs:
Fired it up at 2:05 PM & let it run til 2:30 !! :cooldancing:
no real issues , it fired up immediatly & stalled as the choke was not connected , restarted immediatly , no problems & ran great for 25 mins . I let the engine cool down & installed the inner valve spring & reset the valve lash & started it again & set up the idle mixtures ,small leak from the valve cover gasket on re-install I had to correct & I seem to have a bad water pump as I have a small drip from the water pump so I guiess I wil have to get a new one .
It seems to be very responsive & runs great for only running 30 mins  :working: :wow: :woohoo:
