After 1.5 yrs she came to life today...... gotta admit as usual I was freaking out at that first twist of the key and bam she sputtered a tad and jump right to life and into a nice idle.... damn nice sound.... hate it when the dizzy is out and you gotta mess around....
brought it up to full temp and then shut it down and set the timing...running about 15 degs advanced and its plenty stout.... thing run the balls....oil pressures bout 50 psi at anything above idle and with the new CR/Visteon radiator she never even hit 180. I set the idle around 800 and she's got a nice sound and responsive right from idle. FTI did a sweet job on the cam as I told him i wanted low/mid power and its right there.
Combo
8.9 comp,all forged, balanced, girdled, SRP pistons, Scat crank, AFR 185s warmed over by FTI with FTI cam, Scorp 1.6s, Eddy RPM, Accu 75, 1 5/8 ceramic LTs, 24s, 373s
