Finaly got the engine running! had the valves a bit too tight. sounds mean as hell . might be a bit too loud but it's hard to tell with the sound bouncing off the walls in the shop. I Frankensteind the bare minimum wires and key gauges to get it running and for brake in but it will stay that way till after paint. still have some trouble shooting and tuning to do but am just happy she runs again.
LOL' No matter how many engines I build, I get the same feeling the first time it fires up! gotta love it!
