Default My formula is alive!!!

well guys some of you know me, but for the others, this has been a project of mine that ive had for 3.5 years, never really made any progress untill this year due to funds and work and such. this was my first f-body.i built the engine, and this was my first GM motor as well, so im happy to see it run, the transmission was built with my assistance by BIG JOHn Aka GREASYMEC. so this is the first time its ran in 4 years and it moved under its own power. im excited so i thought i would share. its a stock shortblock, heads cam motor
very small cam , hand ported heads,ls1 intake. really just a mild build. so heres the start up vid hope yall enjoy!

well tonight it made its maiden voyage, around the streets, not even 2 minutes of idling and a damn neighbor complained. i hate HOA's uptight ***'s. i knew it would **** some people off but not that many. hadnt even ran for 10 minutes. o well time to find a quiet exhaust so i can fend off the cops.
