Good call Greg. 1 turn is a perfect place to start. I've spent a fair amount of time getting my 850 holley working right. They can be a tricky to dial in.

Well I’ve got to give a big thanks to the Lat-g crew for all the input on the problem I was having with my car. It was a good thing we ran a compression check because cylinder 7 was dead. I had over tightened rocker thus causing my problem. Readjusted and acted like a completely different engine. Thanks guys!!

If you guys lived closer I'd buy the first pitcher! lol


:cheers: :cheers:

Glad you got it cleared up and it was something easy to fix.

Well I’ve been working like a dog to get this thing done! Let me tell you its hard work putting sunglasses on and cruising around trying to get some miles on it before I take it to the Dyno. I did happen to add a few more not so necessary parts though. :thumbsup:

I made a bracket that mounts to stock exhaust mounts.

Craig --

Nice 2X4 !! :rofl: :rofl:

Good to see you're overcoming the demons...

I always make a list - sorted by what's important vs what is cosmetic...
I check it off as I go -- makes me feel good to see the list growing shorter and shorter.

You don't like my redneck hood prop? lol :D

The exterior of the car is done! I would like to update gauges someday but that will have to wait for now.

We spent the day at C&S Dyno in Omaha and then over to J2 for a quick hood alignment and finished installing hood pins.



The numbers we got were 409HP@5100rpm and 457 torque ft-lbs. Those numbers are good enough for me on this car. :thumbsup:
