WELL I got the ol Formula started today After damn near 4 months it was nice to hear how mean she sounds. Me and my Dad did a lot of tiding up today, loose wires, routing stuff here and there and putting convoluted tubing on wires that needed it. I made the MSD wires which were a pain in the *** cuz I had to do em twice, once with 90 deg plug boots and another with multi angle plug boots I also tracked down a IAT sensor and grommet, installed those, filled the radiator, tightened clamps and let her loose. My dad primed it(check out how old school my pops is, after he primes it, he steps on the gas before he turns the key LOL) and BAM she fired right up I can't hear the turbo tho We were going to street run it, but I can't have all the luck....I have a leaky tranny line, but my uncle is headed over tomorrow to fab up some new tranny lines for me

I totally agree on that...I'd rather run 10s and make 400HP than make 700 and run 12s
