Sent from my iPhone on a 3rd story balcony in Kapoho over looking the Pacific Ocean.

Congrats Ron... It is a great day! Got mine fired today too. How about that, two on one day? I'm just as bummed as you to not be there to see it first hand.

Sounding good. What exhaust set up are you planning on running?

Looking forward to hookin up one of these days and ripping them together.

BTW your video guy is way better than mine :flashie:

Congrats Ron, it will be killer when it's done.

Congrats buddy! :thumbsup:

No mufflers, a G string and a big cam..I knew you were a DRAG racer !!!

Fixer'd it up proper for ya Dawgy. :D

Holly crap!!! I go out for a little and come back to see this!!!!:confused59: :confused18: :excited: :hapdance: :woot:

WOW what a day Ron!! You must feel great.

Yeah it's huge. I was trying to keep it cool, but insides were hoping!

Thx G. Can't wait for you to hear it! :thumbsup:

Yo Vince! Have a great vacation Bro. You deserve it! :cheers:

Theresa! Err, I mean Davey! :thumbsup:

I was lucky enough to try and feather the pedal Jeff :ifailed: I've got some shorty Borlas and am gonna try and do a Siamese x-pipe. Tailpipes are up in the air still.

Congrats on your progress too!

Thx Greg! Looking forward to your vid after paint :D

Sieggy! :cheers:

Us fashionistas gotta stick together, but...if Jerry keeps it up he's gonna lose his yellowbullet card. :lol:

Yeah a great day Bro, but where were you?? If you we're trolling Colombus and taking pics I'd give you a pass :D

Congrats on getting the beast fired !

Thank you Ron, and thanks for all your help! Fun times ahead :ohyeah:

Congrats Ron! Sounds bada$$!!

Congrats on your progress too!




Thanks Ron... I love the way mine XR-1's are sounding even over the video. Raced home from work and had to watch the vid on the big monitor with the volume turned up so the sub could shake the floor. Good thing the wify wasnt home.

I had to dump the exhaust before the rear end. Couldnt get them 3" pipe around the AirBar and shockwaves. I know its going to be loud but thats all part of it.

It is all in the camera work.;)

It was really cool to be there with you when you finally heard it fire up. :thumbsup: I was STOKED and it wasn't even my car.

I think Ron was in shock. He was calm :headscratch: and relatively quiet, that's not Ron. I know he was playing it cool in front of the Ford guy.

Congratulations buddy.

:cheers:

Congrats Ron. :thumbsup:

The sound of an SB2 firing is unmistakeable and never gets old to this trained ear...







:lol:

Nope no Columbus for me, and not from some guys trying to get me to go. Way to much going on at work for play time, heading out to Detroit on Sunday for the week. Glad to hear running!!

Sounds healthy for a V6.

Since 1- ........., Then 2- ......... perfectly!!!

:lol:

Nice to see you can take / discuss ideas so nicely too.

Keep the great work up!

Lead.

Not sure how I missed this one... I must have been on some super killer road trip with a hot rod or a race car... :poke: :mock:




That couldn't have been my wedding picture! I know that because I was married in Grey wool pin stripes --- because I was the VP and partner of a New York City import firm. I didn't have room for welders in my apartment and for several years didn't even have a car!!!



Cheers!

Engine sounds beastly buddy.....



And you're right.... open headers and O2 sensors don't play nice together.

Greg... I gotta say... you looked like a real d!ck back then.

Glad that hasn't changed.

:hello:

I was.


I still am.

DG,

Go easy on the man, those were the Jimmy Carter years. :bur2:

BTW Greg, was any thought given to importing and exporting? ;)

.

Even most d!cks smile at their own wedding. You sir, are in a league of your own.

Restrained jubilation...

Yeah --- but I couldn't get clear title to Ron's Camaro.... can't even remember which shop it was at back then... Of course the car was only 10 years old at the time. Now the motor is that old. :smiley_smack:

:lol:


No swing and misses from GW today. :D

Daaamm, ouch! point taken. Hope my grand kids will enjoy this thing once there concieved:knokwood: Anyone need a car for SEMA:flashie: I will be done by then!:drowninga: Good picture Greg.

Hey Ron

Congrats on getting the engine fired up, really sounds healthy. I heard you mention how quickly it revs up, these motors are sick. First thing I noticed when I fired mine. Must be all the light weight Ti inside. So I just re did the complete fuel system, Fast102r,nw102,ID850s, carls zl1 pump, holy crap it now revs like it has ITB's on it. Seat dyno really improved power under the curve.
Im psyched for you, can't wait to hear more.- Rich

The sound of that engine is music to my ears. Sounds mean and like it's ready to tear up the auto-x. :drive:

Was hoping to womp on a big block. :poke:

Dayum Greg. When I first met your son I thought he was adopted (or the postman's :lol:).

True. :D :cheers:

Funny you mention that Rich. I was talking with QMP on Friday about the future dyno day and they said they got 20 hp in back-to-back with the Fast 102 and NW. I was trying my best to defend the ported factory stuff.

I guess I'll save that for part II. Thx for jumping in Brother :thumbsup:

Hey Marcus :hello:

The engine sounds awesome Ron... congrats! That first drive is so close now, be careful with all that power :D, Great job on the whole build... very impressive :thumbsup:

:cheers:

Reminds me of Run to the Alamo..... a shop with two Mustangs unloads the cars off the trailer -- one is brand spankin' new build... a "helper" is tossed the keys and told to go down the street to fill it with gas.... The street is wet... and heavily crowned... The station is 4 blocks away. The car is upside-down in the ditch.

Ron sorry man, late to the party. Congrats on getting that engine bay completed and the motor fired up.
