This thing has been down for three years with one issue after another. Hopefully we have done enough to get out and have some fun for a change.

LSW head, which ones are those?

Damn thing looks killer. Dry sump, vacum pump, distributor, carb, you did everything the right way for sure.

Definately all the right hardware for an 8 second n/a combo, now get to it!
