Glad to hear you finally got it fired up. I think I would have shot the motor long ago. Congrats on getting her done and your patience through it all.
Thank you!

........and it didn't grenade in the 30 minute break-in, no leaks, NO FIRES! Throttle response feels good looking forward to seeing what the heads, intake, and carb upgrade feel like. Too bad the fire kept me from the "before" dyno session I had planned. But I don't need a sheet of paper to tell me it's better or worse.

I set the ignition at 12* for break-in and richened the air circuit and idle mixuture screws. It almost hit a peak of 190* and oil pressure at 2K was 38 psi.



After the run in I set the idle at 950ish and initial at 16* and shut it down without any run on. 16* intial gives me a total of 41* at 3,750.

No discoloration on the new Doug's Headers either!
