Marks71 Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 That is really coming out nice. I like the attention to detail and the “can never have enough protection” mentality. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canuck Posted February 25 Author Share Posted February 25 It’s all assembled except for the distributor and spark plugs. Just waiting to schedule a time for the engine builder to come by and help with the first startup. The suspense is killing me. Days feel like weeks at this point 🤣. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cny first gen 71 Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 Well have you taken it out for a ride yet? Enquiring minds want to know! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jft69z Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 Yep, take it out and give it a little load, it'll help seat the piston rings. Not redline, but don't be afraid to put your foot in it a bit. Just running it at idle or on a test run stand isn't enough. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuck Posted March 4 Author Share Posted March 4 I need to get some buddies over to put the hood and bumper on before I take it out. Not sure when that will happen yet as I’m into my busy season at work. There’s a couple minor leaks I have figure out and deal with first as well. I’ve been sick this weekend so haven’t been in the garage since Friday. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't need a hood for a test run , maybe the leaks and a bumper tho 🤣 Feel better soon 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
