Yes it runs but I did have a lean backfire while starting it the other day and shredded a air filter after someone had opened a fuel bleed line that I hadn't noticed. Took two fabricators 5 years full time to build. The silly part is this year at the Pebble Beach Concours De Elegance they have a new 20+ liter class and someone told them about my car. They said by all means send in a entry so I did. You have no idea how out of place this thing will look if it gets accepted.
It will be interesting to see if Jay Lenno doesnt start waving his checkbook arround...
