Yes. First drive.

Haven’t done much lately. Waiting on the ac system that’s in bound in the next few weeks. As well as waiting on the exhaust. I have wrapped up the back end of the car with new paint on the back, new led lights, lenses, and restored the bezels. Dynamat has been installed inside and I’ve started reinstalling the dash. Also starting to adjust the front coil overs for ride height/look.

Chris,
I recognize your son from O’Reilly’s in Georgetown, small world. Beautiful builds by the way.

I took a small break from working on the car to complete the driveway back to the shop. Cant have this car driving thru the grass and over curbs to get it in and out of the shop. I recently replaced the valley cover on the engine to allow me to fill the oil without having to remove the valve cover coil covers I intend to run. Took some pics of the huge polished intake ports while apart. Finished up most of the wiring for the engine under the hood an powered up the computer. Have it cranking and showing 26psi oil pressure with the starter cranking. Going to try for first start and heat cycle this week. Getting closer!

Man, that is one tough looking power plant amigo!!

Went pretty well. Had a stuck injector at first and it dumped lots of fuel into it. Also the open headers have the air fuel ratio all messed up because the 02 censor is right at the header collector. Here is a video.

Watched it on Instagram. Nice!

That's exciting! I don't know how you're going to keep it straight or keep the rear end down.

Awesome to watch build and hear that real rumble

Great Work!

Sounds like a beast. Can’t wait to see it all finished.

Got the exhaust done and on the car this weekend. Also made some adjustments to the tune so its not dumping fuel (was extremely rich). Had a wire crossed on the cam censor that was allowing it to run rough but not give a tach reading. That is also fixed. Didn't get lot of pictures. I will load up a better video of it idling through its new 3" stainless pipes.
