Talking She's alive!!!!

...but not rolling yet. Still need to get the crossmember finished and installed. Also, just found out the master cylinder for the clutch is leaking so the cluth won't disengage properly.

Besides that... everything works great! The thermostat kicks in perfectly, the fans work flawless and it starts within a second of turning the key. Man this thing is loud and mean with open headers. I'll post a video this week.

It would have started the first crank if I didn't mix the fuel lines up. I accidently put the return line on the feed side so I wasn't getting any fuel preasure. Once we figured that out it cought on first crank. Permagrin for at least a few days now!!!

Man, you make me jealous!. I'm dropping my new engine in today, and with a hell of a lot of luck will be breaking in the cam too (with open headers, of course )
