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?
Getting a lot closer.........Got the Radio all hooked up and installed.......It's the stock AM radio that has been reworked with all solid state insides......AM/FM Stereo and Sirius/XM .......Pretty cool.....The heater/ A/C unit is ready for charging......one problem I had that I knew would be an issue at a later time were the Dome / Console courtesy lights didn't work.....so.....I thought I had something hooked up wrong.......well, today I wanted to get the inside finished up and it was time to deal with that issue.......I had just put some Chinese LED bulbs in those two spots and since they were brand new I never gave it a second thought that the bulbs were no good........LOL.....After checking and replacing the Chinese "Garbage" with regular bulbs everything works just fine.......the only thing that doesn't work out of all the wiring and electrical issues is the console clock bulb..........Got Lucky........Here are some pic's from today.....a long way from a week ago.........The Wheels are finished and are in transit.....so .....we are getting ready for the exhaust system and front end alignment.......
