Default Startup Video of my car

Well some of you may have seen my build thread. Some not, but myself and my buddy Broke Ef did a truck manifold kit ourselves.

For more info on my build go to
https://ls1tech.com/forums/forced-induction/853093-my-build-lots-pics.html

For the startup we filled up fluids, turned key on 3 times, then started the car. We turned it on 3 times to get fuel in the lines, and injectors.
For the startup video go to
http://www.fquick.com/videos/viewvideo.php?id=5190


Let me know what you all think.

Thanks, chris

Sounds really good. Get a screen or filter on the turbo,it would suck to come this far and then suck something in there and ruin it. Who is going to be tunning it?

The first part of the video, when its in the garage, and stuff all over the floor. If you look in engine bay you can see the air filter. Its a 5 inch inlet, 7 inch long K&n filter.

Texas speed did a base map for startup.
Sound performance will be doing the tunning.

Holy **** you have it started already, thats sick. Congrats on the quick but very nice looking build there. Will be nice to get her tuned and see what she can do put to the test. You make me feel being I have been gathering parts since last summer for my project and will be starting next month. I am building up the whole powertrain and drivetrain though, I know I'd get boost happy, turn it up and blow something. Now I will have a 'better' piece of mind since nothing is guarenteed in this game. Props to you guys though, now go enjoy some Even though I am sure you've had your fair share when working on the Hoss

We got it done pretty quick, but only worked on it 1 day a week. If we worked on it everyday for 8 hours it would of been done in under 2 weeks.

Id have a real hard time having my car down a really long time. Couple weeks for it to be driving around, and a tune video.

If you want to be technical, it should have started the week before. Not to bad for 2 guys with no experience

I dont really have a goal, but im thinking in the 500's for now. I want the stock block to last a little while.

Im thinking it will be tuned in about 2 weeks, or so.

I am very excited about getting it going.
