Default Short video

I took my son for a short ride today. I put the wrong chip in the edelbrock box so the timing was too fast, as you can tell from the sound.

I'll make you a deal on everything you need to install the carb setup. I am going back to injection. I plan to build a bigger engine next year and would rather just retune the injection setup for it.

Looks like it's up and running..... and judging by the video, it runs pretty good! Get the injection setup on it, and it's gonna run a bunch better, that cam's probably not really big enough for that intake/carb setup, but with the injection it's gonna have throttle response and a power curve you will love!

I can have my stuff ready to ship in the next couple of days, but the new valve covers don't go.

It has good throttle responce. If it runs any better, I don't expect the rear to last long. It's still the stock 7.5 posi.
