It's alive......

It took alot longer than it should have but my car is now running again. Sort of.

I swapped out the Tirck Flow heads for a new set of AFR 195cc Eliminators and a custom hd roller Comp Cam. I spent 3 hours trying to install the upper plenum Saturday night. For the life of me I couldnt seem to do it without tearring injector 0-rings. This of course caused fuel leaks. It took 7 attempts to get it right. My back was killing me Sunday but I soldiered on, put the rest of it back together while the neighbors were sleeping, then started it up.

It started leaking oil from the back of the intake after I turned the camera off. The intake needs to come off again and more sealent applied to the china wall

Intake has been reinstalled, now it's leaking from the valvecover gaskets.

It does pull really strong in the upper RPM's.

I plan to take it to Clearview Saturday night, anyone else up for an impromptu meetngreet?
