IT'S ALIVE!!!!!
« on: April 04, 2005 - 10:50:06 PM »
9:17 - 9:37pm

She fired up after a little more timing tuning and she stayed running the entire time for her break in.... what a BEAST this motor is!!! There's SOOOOO much power sitting there that once everything is hooked up and driveable, this is going to be INSANE!!! :drool: :grinyes: :thumbs: :dogpile: :dogpile: :beer: :cool:

Here's a couple pics I snapped before I closed up shop for the night (no more flower fender cover comments... :madvibe: :stomp:)... we also got the whole thing on video, which I'll be transfering over and editing sometime soon!!! She sounds AWESOME!! (minus the out of time valves popping - still working on that one!)

Enjoy!!

Oh, and I've got the biggest sh!t happy grin on my face right now.... HEHEHEHEHE!!!!
