Can't wait to see/hear it in real life, sounds good...

Oh, is your tach getting it's feed from the MSD? If not it doesn't appear to be working either...
John yea the tach is being feed from the MSD which I bypassed to t/shoot the communication issue. It does work... just wasnt working when I took the vid I'll take some vid when we dyno it too... it still has a few bugs. If you looked close you would have noticed a white rag to the right of the master cyl. That was stuffed under the line lock since I had the line off.

Over stock? A LOT! There is pretty much nothing stock about it any more so everything makes noise.

Nice Small cam you got there!!! You have a pretty big stall for it I would guess!

Idle sounds good.

actually the converter is probably a bit on the tight side, but I just didnt see the need to blow more money at it when the converter only has 4 passes on it. Its a Yank ST4000. It should stall closer to 4200 with this motor but we will see. Idle seems to be OK... its way rich trying to start as you can see. Nothing that a laptop cant fix

That is a healthy sized cam.
If I ever decide to dedicate my car
for the track I'd like to go BIG SR!

Thanks guys... its only been 2 years since I started with it so I am happy to have it running now. I love the sound of it too. Makes me jealous and I own it

Not sure what springs are on it honestly. TEA built the heads and they used "Trick Flow" spings... I know for a fact they just used someone elses springs but I dont know what brand. They also used "Trick Flow" valves... they say Ferra on them

They are double springs with a damper, 1.550 set up at 225lb seat and about 600 open (cant remember exact specs off hand) Installed at 1.950 good for over .700". They might be K-motion K-1100's... but I'm not 100% sure of that.

I made that a few weeks ago. The one I used is the 3 version... I didnt like the first 2. Since its a race car i did not put in everything you would want on a street car. No speedo, no milage. But it has water, trans and oil temp,oil and fuel pressure, battery volts, vacuum, and fuel level. Oh and the monster tach for rpm and a red LED for the MIL.
