Thanks for your support!Not that my video is ground braking but to show a milestone in my progress.I only have a couple gallons of fuel so I have to make the most of the startup procedure,Ya $$ is tight.I sware I have said in 2 weeks it will be running at least 4x. Well at least I am there now is all I can say for now. Last edited by Clanton; 06/05/13 11:48 PM. GOTBOOST!New improved with Victor heads. http://www.enginelabs.com/mopar-big-bloc...t-of-necessity/
