The builder doing his stuff

It worked !

Tuning by the engine builder on Saturday

I wish I could post a video Lots of smoke in the garage - combo of the oil in the motor from the priming that was done on it- then when that cleared - it was the painted manifolds - ha

Runs !

Thanks for the advice- will Try to loosen and tighten tonight!

But it did fire up and run for a bit before we shut it off because of the stupid fuel leaks

Well- new update. Changed the starter to a mini starter- much better to crank it over. We need to solve the timing issue and the biggest problem- the new fuel line kit is leaking at both carbs, the t block and where is goes into the pump. Not sure who flared this thing ….

He changed the shaft to a Chrysler shaft

But it wants to go! Lots of spark and oil pressure. Just need a faster starter - going to put a mini on it for now and change back later

Well- getting close I had the distributor rebuilt and the cap he put on was wrong- had to find one One fuel line was leaking, and my rebuilt starter is about to **** the bed

Getting ready to fire up the car - nervous excitement for sure ! Hoping everything goes smoothly
