I was doing an 8 stack for a buddy on his BBC.... had him running the "key"... and each time he turned it to "on" (not start) it shot a load of start fuel...
We're in his garage....
We had all the ignition hooked up... MSD - coil - etc.... all of a sudden it fired thru the exhaust so hard my ears are still ringing and that was 3 years ago. OMG that thing lit off! It had the cleanest exhaust pipes EVER cause it blew black crap out the pipes so hard it impregnated the cement floor...
After that I learned to pull the fuse AND disconnect the coil wire.
#2 -- I'll never forget my first install of a new LS2 motor --- hitting the key and having it fire and run IMMEDIATELY... it's like --- OKAY! That was pretty kool!
No timing lights - no messing with the EFI - No carb fire drill.... No cam break in... just fire off and run! Gotta love that!
Oh!! I didn't know he was having this built at Steve's Auto Restorations! What's oil for in a new motor? They're supposed to have break in lube on everything don't they?
