this is the video i just got today of my motor finally being started after a long build process but was worth th wait this is before being timed or anything will post another video after she is timed and tuned so we can really hear the cam follow this link for you tube.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2bGSj3j070A

 

Sounds good. Just in time for summer.

 

Sounds great Chris the video was to short, and we need a close up. Must have felt good to hear it run. Congrats

 

it felt great to hear her for the first even though a lil ruff tried to get her timed today but the water pump showed that it was bad with leaking and the balancer timing mark isnt even close so getting a new water pump and balancer tomarrow morning and hopefully get her timed and get a new close up video so we can really hear that cam

 

I'm getting my small block back hopefully friday and it will run Sunday if I do. i love the start up thing. The cam etc, what a blast. I love HOT RODS!

 

Let me know if you need a hand with anything. I'm laid off and bored.

 

Tight.

 

Very Cool....however I noticed no valve covers?....If it was the first start engine rpms should have been brought up to about 2000 RPM and maintained for at least 15 minutes for cam/engine break-in. Valve covers need to be on for this to eliminate a real oily mess.
