Your car starts? Man I'm jealous.

Congratulations. I like the square bodied Chevelle/Malibus. I really dig the patina. Did I say I was jealous of that also?

Rob. It does start! Got a bit further today: filled the radiator and ran it long enough to get everything up to operating temperature. Need to adjust the fuel pressure a bit more. Then figure out how the self learn feature works and how to apply it to make it better.
Got a power steering fitting that wants to leak so I'm redoing that hose, then I plan on actually moving it out of the shop under it's own power...baby steps.

Congrats Aaron! Really great to see the car running. Props to Tommie as well. He's always the first guy to lend a hand to you both!

Thanks Ron. It's been a monumental week and it's only Thursday. Another big one today. Car drove out of the shop, did a few laps around the grass with the boys, they loved it too. So far everything seems pretty good. Now time to learn Holley HP EFI programming

Tom is the man for sure. I met him at HRPT 2011 in Indy, been friends ever since. Terrific people the Farringtons are.

Little walk around today. Happy 4th everyone!

Once you can drive the car, set the ECM to auto learn and go drive it. All different kind of loads on the motor.

You had one of the best guys to help you.

Thanks Dan. Gotta do some more reading about it to make sure I update it properly with the learned info.

Couple of shots outside. I like the stance. We'll see after driving it a bit. Right now there is 4-1/2" under the front crossmember.



and got the Dakota Digital lit up too

Gauges look nice! Congrats on getting the car running. It's a wonderful feeling.
