Default Its ALIVE.........!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I ran the fuel system tonight which allowed me to finally get the engine started and making noise. I still need to get a rad. fan/trans cooler and some other minor details, but she fired right up. I was concerned about starting it up without a MAF and IAT (but programmed for it). She fired right up, idled about 620 rpms, jumped up once in awhile to 930 or so. Went into drive and reverse. Ran about 60 psi oil pressure also (stock pump w/70K miles on it).

Tomorrow I'll see if I can post a video of it running. It was getting late and I didn't want to **** the neighbors off to much with open headers.
